I love Billy Dee Williams. He is one of my all time favorite actors. But even he admits that his family was part of the “black bourgeois” such that he hasn’t experienced as extreme of prejudice as some other African Americans. Maybe this is a topic that he should refrain from as he may have very different experiences from others.Billy Dee Williams Says Actors Should Be Allowed to Wear Blackface
"If you’re an actor, you should do anything you want to do," Williams said during a podcast appearance this week.www.hollywoodreporter.com
A looooooong time ago I attended a talk with Roger Ebert (pre-illness and jaw surgery) where he kinda put this into perspective. During the Q&A, someone jokingly gave him a hard time about giving The Santa Clause 2 three stars while he gave some more prestige-y movie I can't remember (so we'll just call it Prestige Movie) 2.5 stars. They were like, "so does that mean you really feel Santa Clause 2 was a better, more worthwhile movie than Prestige Movie"? And he said he scores movies based on how good they are at being the type of movie they're trying to be. So he said those scores meant he thought The Santa Clause 2 was better at being a Santa Clause movie than Prestige Movie was at being a Prestige Movie. That kinda made movie ratings make a lot more sense to my teenage brain.I just had the same conundrum. It doesn't feel right, does it?

I just watched the original for the first time last week. It’s a ton of fun. Cult classic for a reason! Haven’t seen the remake yet, though.I've never seen Road House. Should I see the original or the newest one?
