Legendary actor Richard Dreyfuss condemned Hollywood’s new inclusivity standards in strong terms during a recent interview, claiming they make him "vomit."

Dreyfuss, who’s starred in "Jaws," "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," and many other classic Hollywood films, blistered the new diversity and inclusion guidelines that will be implemented at the Academy Awards starting next year.

The guidelines must be adhered to by any film in the running for a "Best Picture" Oscar

The anchor stated, "Starting in 2024, films will be required to meet new inclusion standards to be eligible for the Academy Awards for ‘Best Picture.’ They’ll have to have a certain percentage of actors or crew from underrepresented racial or ethnic groups."

She asked, "What do you think of these new inclusion standards for films?"

Not holding back, Dreyfuss declared, "They make me vomit."

Defending his total rejection of the concept, he said, "Because this is an art form, it’s also a form of commerce and it makes money, but it’s an art. And no one should be telling me, as an artist, that I have to give in to the latest most current idea of what morality is."

The actor continued, claiming that such guidelines stifle creativity and risk. "And what are we risking? Are we really risking hurting people’s feelings? You can’t legislate that? And you have to let life be life."

Dreyfuss further claimed he doesn’t believe any group in society today that should be given special treatment. He said, "And I’m sorry, I don’t think there’s a minority or a majority in the country that has to be catered to like that."

The actor then defended Hollywood legend Lawrence Olivier’s "Blackface" rendition of Shakespeare’s "Othello" in 1968.

He stated, "Lawrence Olivier was the last White actor to play ‘Othello,’ and he did it in 1965. And he did it in ‘Blackface.’ And he played a Black man brilliantly."

He conveyed his point with a few rhetorical questions, asking , "Am I being told that I will never have a chance to play a Black man? Is someone else being told that if they’re not Jewish, they shouldn’t play the ‘Merchant of Venice?’ Are we crazy? Do we not know that art is art?"

Dreyfuss wasn’t done condemning the inclusion guidelines, saying, "This is so patronizing. It’s so thoughtless and treating people like children."

Hoover asked the actor if the history of slavery and racism in America might justify making "Blackface" a taboo, though Dreyfuss claimed he didn’t think so.

Again, he said, "Because it’s patronizing. Because it says we’re so fragile that we can’t have our feelings hurt. We have to anticipate having our feelings hurt, our children’s feelings hurt. We don’t know how to stand up and bop the bully in the face."

Luckily Ricard has made his money and his career is essentially over, so he has the freedom to speak his mind

Others, on the other hand, still have to make money and keep quiet.

Sad.

Sad.

His career is far from over. He just completed a film, and he has four in pre-production.

For years, the Best Picture has usually been greeted with jeers like, WTF??

Why should anything change now?

Boycott the Academy. I haven't watched the Oscars for thirty years. There hasn't been anything worthy of being called a "Best Picture"

Don't we all? I mean...do you run away from yours?

Gotta be one of the dumbest statements I've ever seen posted on these boards...and that's saying a lot.

"Because it’s patronizing. Because it says we’re so fragile that we can’t have our feelings hurt.

This sums up the leftist nanny state they want in a nutshell.
It's like the soft racism they have for blacks by claiming they can't help themselves so we have to do it.
Only now, it's the elitism showing through that none of us are good enough to make decisions on our own so they have a moral imperative that requires them to call all the shots whether we like it or not.

I don't think so.

This is why I don't watch award shows any longer. It's now all about diversity instead of merit.

By the way Dreyfuss, this is the world that you have actively worked to give us, so enjoy pal!

Sad.

That's the kind of mentality that perpetuates the idea "they won't let you do that." Everytime someone says that kind of drivel all it does is make it more real, when the reality of it is, it isn't real at all. You really should be supporting him and people like him instead of pushing that narrative.

Everytime you say that a loud all you do is support the left woke.

None of that was intended as an insult against you personally by the way.

But Quentin Tarantino disagrees with that sentiment and he remains active because he won't let it happen to him.




And I love his comment "well who is they?"

 

[DigitalDrifter]

Hey Michelangelo! When you're painting the chapel ceiling there, make sure you place a few angels of color there in the background. And make sure you have a couple rainbow flags, and give God some eyeliner, oh, and put Adam in a dress!
