“It’s ‘cause you’re black!” the director shouted out from across the room. At first, everyone thought it was a joke. It wasn’t. The director had known the entire time; he’d cast the orgy that way on purpose. [More]Just to be clear: It's a woman's body/a woman's choice? But if she doesn't make her choices in the way the collective demands, will she be condemned as a racist and ruined...?
And what is it but the collective's demands, that is, what it wants to watch, that determines value for "services" rendered...?
Exiting the world of porn, let's consider a sleazier, less honest business: mainstream Hollywood. You don't need to look very hard (sorry) to find all kinds of nudity and sex scenes, including not just interracial but gay/lesbian action. The question arises (sorry again), what if a budding starlet really doesn't want to, but feels pressured by future career option considerations, including being vilified and ...uh....... blackballed (sorry, sorry, sorry) for turning a role down? How is that morally any different from Harvey Weinstein or the #MeToo-villified casting couch?
Even an old industry pro like Yul isn't much help trying to get some "progressive" consistency on this.
Another thing you don't have to look very hard for:

Because you knew this was going to be all his fault, right?
Usually, your humor is more like bitter sarcasm, - understandably so, of course.
ReplyDeleteBut this time, your jokes ROCK!!! :-)
