blue_lotus13While ironing a few weeks ago, I saw Ashton Kutcher interviewed on Ophrah. He was talking about his relationship with Demi and actually sounded somewhat intelligent.
Well, I take back that observation after reading part of the following interview with him. Here's what he said about "Guess who", which as you know, is based on "Guess who's coming to dinner."
When “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner” came out decades ago, it made an impact because of the subject matter.
And thank God for the movie because it changed things.
What’s this movie going to do?
This is going to change a little bit more. The problem is people think it’s all getting all even now. Everybody is starting to get all comfortable with it. Everybody is starting to think it’s getting all even. And when you come see the movie, there’s going to be a scene in it at the dinner table where everybody gets a little bit uncomfortable. And then you’re going to realize it’s not all even yet. Because if somebody comes to me and starts telling white jokes, I don’t have a problem with it. I’m comfortable with it. But when we tell black jokes in the movie, people get uncomfortable because it ain’t all even.
