I’ve seen outtakes on You Tube. It has excellent reviews on IMDB. Has Any Doper watched it?

Actually the lack of interest in this is telling.

I only watched the trailer and that trash was more than I prefer to stomach in one sitting.

I know I’m going to regret asking, but…what exactly is so telling about the lack of interest in watching a movie about a modern day uncle tom complaining about that fact that people accurately portrait him and others like him as a modern day uncle tom?
