Juliet is an upper-class Italian woman of the Renaissance. The chances of her being of sub-Saharan African ancestry are vanishingly low. So yes, her whiteness is imperative.
Catwoman was not established over centuries of literature as a white character, like Juliet. Catwoman was not established over centuries of literature as an Italian woman. Eartha Kitt was half Caucasian and one-quarter American Indian. She was light-skinned, fine-featured, and not distinctly black-looking, especially in Catwoman makeup and costume.
If a remake of "Shaft" was made and a white actor was cast in the main role, a massive shitstorm would hit the fan, and you know it. That's hypocrisy.
"Hope you don't have a daughter."
Every heterosexual man who has ever had a daughter likes to see and feel female breasts. It's completely natural and normal.
"...why would I show you my breasts?"
It's up to you, but if you did decide to show them, it would then be hypocritical to criticize people for appreciating them.
It's not an either/or situation. Just because a woman has attractive breasts does not mean she has no other worth, or that she is not noticed for other qualities, too.
JoWilli, you are 100 percent correct, but just wait until you see all the fools who will contradict you.
Well, yeah, but it's also a comedy.
He was an Elvis-level pop star in the '20s and early '30s, then had a long, successful career as a character actor. Can't do much better than that.
Darnell was perfect in this role.
He really murders her in the end, and then is tried and hanged.
It looks like you missed the point. The character Harrison plays is supposed to be arrogant and self-centered, so he did his job as an actor very well.
That is absolutely true; however, expecting many of the people who post here to comprehend that fact is extremely optimistic. Reasoning with them is about as effective as administering medicine to the dead.
The distance between their homes and the theatre is irrelevant. The complaint is about a black actress playing a white, Italian character. This casting doesn't appeal to me, so I wouldn't go to see the play. Others won't care one way or another, and still others will be excited about it simply because of her race. It all really just doesn't matter.
Her face does have a sort of Caitlyn Jenner type vibe.
Yes, it's a fun movie, definitely worth seeing.
Yep, certainly no coincidence there. She practically played the same character in both movies.
Yes, it was built for the movie. At first I thought it might be some rich guy's backyard layout that they used, but on closer examination it was clear that the whole garden and railroad were constructed inside a sound stage, with a painted sky and clouds in the background.
See the movie and find out.
This is not one of the well-known 1930s comedies, but it's good all around, from the writing, casting, direction, and acting, to the dogs and spectacular model railroad. It's fun to see Errol Flynn in a modern-day, non-action role, at which he's very good. Patrick Knowles is excellent, too, and it's a wonder he didn't become a bigger star.
"Four's a Crowd" was made immediately after "The Adventures of Robin Hood", not before.
