If your gravy Is sweet and not savory you're doing it wrong.

Le Doulos or gtfo!
Le Samourai is actually my least favorite of the Melville films I've seen
Bob le Flambeur, on the other hand. So great.

I disagree.
I've read multiple stories about Arab oil billionaires buying private performances. I don't recall any about African or (non-Arab)Asian dictators.
The fact that you are so desperate to find bigotry where there's just laziness says more about you than it does about me.

She's had two and I'm pretty sure one of her pregnancies was written into The Office.

I do not see the difference between dressing up in visual shorthand or speaking in accent to establish a character, if it's not demeaning or inaccurate, no. Neither actors' costume was exaggerated or inaccurate.
In fact, I would guess that the "French" costume is much less accurate then the "Arab" costume. If you…

Are you equally upset with the British accents in the murder mystery sketch or when Taran Killam wears a striped shirt, neckerchief and beret in a "Les Jeunes de Paris" sketch?

And if you go to Google images and google Qatar people and Kuwait people, you see picture after picture after picture of men dressed exactly like that and they all have beards, because many of them really do dress like that and they really do have beards.

I mean, it's a good rule, but how often does it come up?

I had a long conversation with my son about this episode and he hit on the same point, that it was impressive how riveting an episode could be where so little (conventionally) happened.

George Miller was director of the year.
Pretentious fucking schlockmeister whose name I can't bothered to spell right can suck my ass. Fucking not even as good as Ron Howard middle-brow shit-meister. Fuck you forever for every second I wasted on your shitty shitty, shitty movies!
Who did you blow?
Seriously?
Who did you…

I hate him enough for both of us.

He probably is a piece of shit. I'm not a fan, certainly.
But getting songwriting credits for things you contributed almost nothing to is pretty standard in that world. Lord knows he's more of a songwriter than Madonna or Beyoncé.

Reviewers get their albums free from labels or publicists.

Look, the chance that they haven't watched Fargo is pretty much zero.
They're just constantly, deliberately obscure and we should be used to that by now.
