The Coen brothers, apparently. The guys who wrote, produced and directed the whole movie. Those guys.

From the movie synopsis:
Anthony Quinn was a latino. He’d have identified as white (same race, but different ethnicity). Congrats for the other two. Any Hollywood directors and producers you could have named? Didn’t think so. So at a time where maybe a handful of the Hollywood and media elite was black, you’d demand your POC in that movie?
85,4% in the state of Minnesota, with a 6% black population, so meeting a black person wouldn’t feel odd, but it’s totally believeable to show a small subset of the population in Minnesota with no POC in a movie, just like I don’t expect to see a blonde, blue eyed person in a movie located in South Los Angeles. Sure,…
Just the tip...
The Coen brothers are from Minnesota. Not all of their movies play in those areas though.
You can’t be really that stupid to claim, that race on one hand and certain physical characteristics, which may or may not be visible for the audience, on the other hand, both have the same connotation in the historical context of a movie? Hm, let’s see, no more movies pre- industrial revolution, because the air…
You do realize that I was referring to a comment about writing white stories (or black stories), not about directing actors of different ethnicities.
Soap fuckers = Soapphilists?
Are you this guy?
Please give me a list of black actors, directors , Hollywood executives and journalists of that era and stop babbling!
I was replying to a comment that stated that there are legitimate reasons to choose a non white cast and I replied by pointing out, that therer never seems to be a legitimate reason for an all white cast, citing examples of fake social media outrage regarding all white casts by the Coen brothers where they had good…
Yes I do, by watching lots of Hollywood movies from that era during the last 40+ years. Please list the the many black actors from the Hail caesar era (1930-40 ish) and also the black Hollywood producers and directors, as well as the countless black movie journalists from that era. I’m waiting...
Great singer:
Ah, you did it! I added Milli Vanilli just to see if you would bite and use this to completely dismiss any other examples I’ve mentioned. You also brought the non-sensical argument of excluding boybands, as if they would not be seen as artists. Lol, you’re a classic goalpost moving troll. Have a nice one...
The thing is, people DON’T make a point to constantly point out male solo artists who don’t write their own music or don’t play instruments,
Please don’t! That’s the source of your ‘best’ material after all.
The Coen Brothers caught heat on jezebel for their lack of racial diversity esp. in their last movie ‘Hail Caesar’. A movie about Hollywood in the 1930/40s. The charcters were actors, directors, movie journalists and studio bigwigs. Having an all white cast made perfect sense, since there were barely any POC in those…
Then it’s also sexist to say that Bieber doesn’t write his own songs, or the members of One Direction didn’t write their own material? I don’t think so. Justin Bieber is 22, Beyonce was just getting started as a solo artist at that age. Before that, she was 1/3 of Destiny’s Child. I am far from being a Bieber fan, but…
