I haven’t seen it yet (and probably never will!), but I got really offended by its total ignorance about Persia an Iran! People now tend to confuse the semitic Babylonians with Persians… what a mess!
Second of all, no offence to Africans or South Americans, but HOW ON EARTH COULD THEY EVER CAST ROSARIO DAWSON AS AN IRANIAN ("Roxanne")? She doesn’t even look like the “darker” Persians!!!!
It's sad.
What did the Persian-American community in Hollywood think about this?
Please, let me know your thoughts on this subject.

My answer: its a movie, and Stone didn't care. If it was a documentary I'd be pissed to. But...its not. Its a movie. |
