In Reply to: Stewart was such a wonderful actor with many great performances. posted by volunteer on May 4, 2010 at 15:01:14:
but Woodie Strode said he didn't think JS was a racist.
Also, from Wikipedia...
"Although greatly admired as a film-maker, director John Ford was well-known for making life difficult for his long-suffering casts, sometimes using a kind of psychological warfare on his actors to extract the most powerful performances possible. When asked by Ford what he thought of the appearance of Woody Strode, an African-American, in greyed up hair, overalls and hat, Stewart remarked that "it looks a bit Uncle Remus-like". Ford then implied that Stewart was racist. On the other hand, Strode himself claimed that Stewart was "one of the nicest men you'll ever meet anywhere in the world".[1]"
Stupidity is NOT a victimless crime.
