Image of blacks and Jews??!
Question: A film which should set back the civil rights struggle by 500 years, `Corinna, Corinna` (1994) places Whoopi Goldberg (born Caryn Johnson) in the context of a maid in a Jewish household. The Jew, played by Ray Liotta, not only puts the make on a member of staff but plagiarises her ideas for his songs as well. (As if the Mafia don`t take everything including your shirt without asking!)
The film is sick because on the one hand it is trying to advance sexual relations between the races (never mind that the miscegenation bill was repealed in the USA in the Sixties and interracial marriage has not only been delicious but legal for some time now) and on the other it is trying to suppress it (you think Liotta is nuts for passing up the Jewish girls in the film)
But it`s the sleazy way that Singer (played by Liotta) has of putting the make on the maid and ripping off her ideas which really appals.
I mean, it was like Hugh Grant. Cruising a black pro makes him guilty of sex & racism

Hmmmm. I never looked at it that way. I wasn't at all offended. I looked at it like a situational drama. I think it attempted to depict an unusual sort of romance, and it did.
By the end of the film they have each dealt with their issues and meet on equal ground.
The bird and the fish have found their nest.
I think your perspective is not quite objective.
Umm, in the film Corrina, Corrina, Ray Liotta plays an atheist. He even states it in the film.
Get your facts right before you try and **** stir.
