>> ALL RIGHT.
WE KNOW YOU WILL BE TRACKING
THAT.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
WE APPRECIATE IT.
>>> ACTOR BRADLEY COOPER FACING
GROWING BACKLASH AND HIS APPEARANCE IN AN UPCOMING
NETFLIX MOVIE."MAESTRO."
HE’S WEARING A
HE APPEARS TO BE WEARING A
PROSTHETIC NOSE.
THIS IS A DECISION THAT SOME
CONSIDER TO BE ANTI-SEMITIC.
WE ARE JOINED NOW.APPENED IN THE
NETFLIX RELEASED A TRAILER ON
TUESDAY BUT A LOT HAS HAPPENED
IN THE LAST 24 HOURS.
>> THE BACKLASH WAS SWIFT.
SOME PEOPLE EXPRESSING OUTRAGE
AND OTHERS COMING TO COOPER’S
DEFENSE AND A LOT OF PEOPLE
POINTING OUT THAT WEARING
STEREOTYPICAL MAKEUP AND
CLOTHING TO PORTRAY ANY OTHER
RACE OR CULTURE IS BEING
INHERENTLY PROBLEMATIC.
HEARING FROM THE NONPROFIT THAT
TWEETED CRITICISM AND SAID
HOLLYWOOD CAST BRADLEY COOPER
TO PLAY A JEWISH INDIVIDUAL.
WHILE JAKE JEWELL AGO, WHO HAS
ALWAYS WANTED TO PLAY HIM AND
DENYING HIM THAT SICKENING.
SAY THAT BRADLEY COOPER IS
PUTTING HIMSELF IN AN INSANELY
LARGE PROSTHETIC NOSE TO PLAY A
JEWISH MAN AND MY SON WERE
SUPPOSED TO ACT LIKE THAT IS
COOL AND NORMAL.
OTHERS WERE QUESTIONING COOPER
BEING CAST IN THE ROLE AS MUCH
AS THEY WERE QUESTIONING THE
NEED FOR THE FAKE NOSE TO BEGIN
WITH.
WRITING, LOOK UP A REAL PICTURE
OF THE REAL LEONARD BERNSTEIN.
THE BIG ANTI-SEMITIC PROSTHETIC NOSE ON BRADLEY COOPER WAS
BACKLASH THAT HE’S
DEFINITELY NOT NECESSARY.
A TASTE OF THE BACKLASH COOPER
IS GETTING RIGHT NOW.
>> IT HAS BEEN A DAY.
WHAT ABOUT THE FAMILY?
>> COOPER AND NETFLIX HAVE NOT
RESPONDED TO THE REQUEST FOR
COMMENT AND WE DID GET A
STATEMENT FROM THE FAMILY
SUPPORTIVE OF COOPER SAYING IT
BREAKS OUR HEARTS TO SEE ANY
MISREPRESENTATION OR
MISUNDERSTANDING OF THIS
EFFORT.
HAPPENS TO BE TRUE THAT LEONARD
BERNSTEIN HAD A NICE BIG NOSE.
BRADLEY CHOSE TO USE MAKEUP TO
AMPLIFY HIS RESEMBLANCE AND WE
ARE PERFECTLY FINE WITH THAT.
WE ARE SAYING THAT OUR DAD
WOULD HAVE BEEN FINE WITH IT AS
WELL.
A BIT OF PROTECTION THERE FROM
THE FAMILY. THE MOVIE IS SET
