[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There should be an exemption if it is a historical piece…. If the movie was about the Russian Revolution in 1918, I would expect the cast to be all Russian. I would not expect to see any Asian, Latino, African Americans as they were not present there at that time. Would be weird to see a Latino Russian army general?[/quote] I think the larger question is the retelling of the SAME stories over and over that at their core are exclusive. All sorts of people lived during WW2 around the world, but we see the same folks stories told over and over again. By same folks the same ones that occupy the history books and newspaper headlines. Yes, I mean Oppenheimer.[/quote] Because they make movies people want to see. It's all about the money. If other movies were profitable, we'd see more of them. Global audiences don't want those other stories.[/quote]
