The race message was a bit strong.


Not that I minded to be fair, but when white actors 'blacken up' in other movies there is a lot of kerfuffle and hubbub and other obscure words thrown around, but most of the actors in this movie were black people in whiteface and does anyone say "That *beep* is racist!"?

No they ruddy well don't! Two faced scoundrels.




Ya Kirk-loving Spocksucker!

Nobody "blackens up" in American films,period---that's a Brit term. What a stupid term,anyway.

Look at the history of the US and can't really be too strong.
