Peludo Arms Sign: Full color cable, except in our Hollywood location Cuco: If a minority wins an Oscar ...It will be for portraying a maid or a gardener. Hollywood is so- so- so... Eddie: Colorblind? Cuco: No, "blind-blind."
Last time I checked Sidney Poitier is a person of color. He received an Oscar for Best actor in a Leading Role for his performance in Lilies of the Field.
@Harryfan, how long ago was that and what has happened ever since?
Jamie Foxx played a drug addict musician, Denzel played a drug abusing corrupt cop and Halle Berry played a prostitute to get an Oscar….You were saying??
One of the big tragedies is that the movie Porgie and Bess that was filmed in 1959 is not available. The cast included Sidney Poitier, Sammy Davis jr, Dorothy Dandridge, Pearl Bailey among other great African American performers. This film won many awards.
