Jeunet's other films have had a similar cultural makeup yet were never decried as racist - but they were not this successful. Does the outrageous success of the film mean that it should be more representative of France? Should we demand a retroactive revision of a film's intent as it does more business? tag:metafilter.com,2001:site.12932 Thu, 06 Dec 2001 12:23:22 -0800 Amelia films jeunet movies Parist racism videodrome
