Hollywood and Bollywood - ketchim - 08-05-2014 Spanish actress Penelope Cruz - the report says Hispanics are "underserved" and "sexualised"  ! Hollywood movies are under-representing non-white ethnic groups in the US, a new study says. Hispanic actors played only 4.9% of speaking parts in 2013 blockbusters : despite making up more than 16% of the population.  ::LOL:: Re: Hollywood and Bollywood - ketchim - 08-05-2014 Snoopster , is she telling the whole truth ?                           Re: Hollywood and Bollywood - ketchim - 08-05-2014 Although they were cast in only a small percentage of parts, Hispanics bought a quarter of all movie tickets in the US, and command about $1 trillion in spending power. Re: Hollywood and Bollywood - ketchim - 08-05-2014 "In fact, nearly half of children under age five in the US are not white," "which means that both the current and future audience for films is far more diverse than what is shown on screen."

Hollywood caters to a certain group of actors and most of them are white. If you look at the crop of films release, the overwhelming majority will feature mostly white actors and maybe a black actor here or there. I can't speak that much on Bollywood but I have notice the films usually feature lighter skin Indians and the darker skin Indians are generally seen in a negative light. However, don't take my word as golden as I am not an expert on Bollywood movies. Re: Hollywood and Bollywood - ketchim - 08-06-2014 You are correct : Bollywood wanna be Caucasian white ! Instaed of DONATING charity to the endless ghettoes and DISEASES spreading : de prefer to buy a Case of skin whitening CREAMS....
