Racism, Sexism and Classism et cetera are endemic ~ they are in all of us ~ once you acknowledge that you get over it by dealing with the real issues in yourself. Haggis' film like Brokeback Mountain deals with real issues. But hey it's only my 'opinion.'
A brilliant takedown of one of the dumbest Oscar winners in recent memory. I really envy people (like Roger Ebert) who genuinely think Paul Haggis's film---with its obvious plot machinations and simplistic characterizations---is "daring" and "brutally honest" in its treatment of race relations in America. Whatever world Haggis thinks his film is supposed to reflect, it sure doesn't feel like what any engaged person would think of as the reality we all live in.
This is pretty brilliant. The editing could possibly be tightened up a little bit, but that might just be me not wanting to sit through the clips again. It's otherwise absolutely hilarious. You've created a worthy tribute.

This clip is pretty *quackin* good. Unfortunately, the stupid quaks and flashing red racist signs were over the top and superflous.
2 thumbs down for this clip.
