>It’s become a cliché to say, ‘Is this movie going to be the Green Book of this year?’ Green Book has become a pejorative.” The film has been attacked for fitting into a history of white saviour narratives. Mortensen found the opprobrium “hurtful and destructive”.
“Much of the criticism that was levelled at that movie was not only unreasonable, but it was inaccurate, mendacious, and irresponsible,” the Danish-American star says on Zoom from his home in Madrid, where he lives with his wife, the actor Ariadna Gil. “It’s based on a load of bullshit and an axe to grind and little else. Does it affect what I’m doing, or how people perceive me as an actor? Maybe it does. But I can’t really do anything about that.”
is he right? if you want the full article it's on the independent dot co dot uk
Green book is one of those hamfisted "racial harmony" movies that’s filled with nothing but cheap platitudes. It’s another Crash and blind side. Cheap and shallow liberal garbage

The only consistent narrative that exists is that white people, especially white men, are evil.

the movie was fucking first class oscar bait. i always thought Viggo was above the hollywood bullshit, but he's actually buying into it apparently
if a film is centrist it has no soul. the only redeemable part was stealing mashersheybara ali's wardrobe

Liberals aren't like that anymore. Now they'd enjoy it more if the black jazz player curb stomped the ginny then fucked his wife
Jaxson Lewis
It's a movie completely saved by the fact that both Viggo and Ali are top actors.
Also you're now sad that Gandolfini wasn't playing Tony Lip because he'd be perfect for it
Christopher Myers
Wasn't the crux of this movie that the white guy acted like a low class jigaboo criminal and the black guy acted like a high class cracker? Movies like this always piss off the uncle toms.
Daniel Howard
It would be funny to ser Tony portraying Carmine Luppertazzi
