Very, very good interview on the offensive portrayal of Native Americans in Sandler’s “Ridiculous Six”, as well as a discussion about stereotypes and satire.
I’ve been covering the news surrounding The Ridiculous Six for about a week now, and I’m very excited to say that I was able to speak directly to one of the actors who left the film, Loren Anthony.
