For some, their politics clouds their ability to objectively view, in this case, a film. For example, a liberal, those who generally look to the government, or an entity with similar scope, to right what they perceive to be socities wrongs, may feel that a group has been wrongly "branded", and that the group is in need of protection. Maybe by a caped crusader who is not part of the group. On the other hand, a more conversative person generally believes in the power and freedom of the individual to guide their own ship. They probably support the idea the Italian Americans are individuals capable of going about their daily lives without feel a stigma upon them by a film or series of films.
