I can. As in: why does being “an indie girl” inherently mean playing a drug addict, stripper or prostitute?

Roman Farrow has indeed been doing some great work, which I’m sure makes his family incredibly proud of him, particularly as it both implicitly and explicitly honors his sister’s truth. But when we talk about the media’s watershed moment against high-powered sexual predators, let’s please make an effort to always

Kim, that’s literally how Justin Timberlake defends his music against allegations of cultural appropriation. "I'm 'inspired' by black music so much that I honor it by making lots of money off it."

It’s funny because if we floated the idea that a white person play a POC, there would be pretty universal agreement that such would be bad.

Fuck her apology.

Would love it if you got this mad about the assault allegations against Jeffrey Tambor mentioned in the same sentence you quoted!!!!

Scarlett Johansson, you’re no Ed Skrein.

I won’t get my Oscar nod with all the bad press so might as well bow out.”

He was where my mind went to first too, though someone else suggested Oliver Stone who seems like a good possibility (though maybe too obvious?).

So what if other cis actors have played trans people? Why is she being so fucking petulant, and refusing to take a principled stance about this? We (and Hollywood, I thought) are more sensitive to this issue now, and LISTEN to others’ experiences and views, there’s no excuse for this type of ignorant and offensive

But she’s a terrible actress. 

Her conventional attractiveness isn’t going to do anything for the role since it's going to have to be hidden under a ton of makeup and prosthetics. Johannson has yet to carry any movie to great success that didn’t have a gimmick to it that makes it unclear if her presence was the draw. From what I’ve read about this

I would but I’m trans so I’d just be a liability in getting it actually made.

Anybody want to help me write a script for Lysette, where she can play Jarlet Scohanssen? A well meaning actress who helps her friend, a homophobic shite bigot called Richael Mappaport, come to terms with his chronic Dolzeal Syndrome?

Ok, I read the article and while this may be super lenient given he wasn’t a public figure in any way other by proxy (due to his father having been PM 30 years or so prior to the event) and given both his explanation and the comments of the reporter as well as the venue it really comes off like he was at a festival,

No! We want her! We get to keep her!

*ahem*

You shut your filthy mouth!

I say make time to dance alone with one hand waving free.

FUN FACT: This is one of three movies in which I walked out midway through. And for teenage me, that was a big deal, you all. Movies are expensive!
