It's still difficult for non-white actors, isn't it? It's better than it used to be, but I think only significantly so for black actors. Asians, hispanics, and American Indians (to name a few) are still not seen much in mainstream Hollywood films, except in incredibly stereotypical roles.
*sigh* Was "Rollerball" the last film he did? Oh, he was adorable in that. The fact that he ended up a bad guy was a surprise, you know?
It's the last one that I know of. I broke down and got it used for $5 and watched it again the other night. It really is a fun movie, albeit a totally bogus plot line. I finally realized that they must have filmed that escape scene in night vision. How's that for funky? And I love the fact that its so international -- and in central Asia, too. I'm fascinated by all the "stans:" Krzygystan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan. Check out my userinfo to see what I list as my location!

I should create a Naveen icon that reads "No, *my* prince!" just to continue the conversation.
"My prince"
"No, *my* prince!"
"My prince"
"Yes, my prince..."
