Just saw Mystic River last night. Directed by Clint Eastwood, starting Sean Penn, Tim Robbins, and Kevin Bacon. Did anyone notice that the only black guy in the movie played by Laurence Fishborne was named ****** Powers? I mean, doesn't that strike you kind of weird? ***********? ****** Powers? Only black guy in the movie? Was that some kind of statement? I'm not trying to say it was racist, maybe it was anti racist in some way. I dunno, but I swear, three times in that movie at least he was introduced as ****** Powers. Anyone catch this?
By the way it's a great movie. Story is OK, but the acting is excellent.
