Ethnicity is usually implied to be outside the mainstream, i.e.- white: So it is rather to me odd to see Greek as being toted as the rave, ethnic movie of the year given that there are dozens of foreign films that fit the "ethnic mold" (EX: City of God).
Greek people are indeed white and if you really want to argue the semantics and trivialities of ethnicity I suppose we could. I personally believe ethnicity is stupid and false. I see nothing wrong with my opinion and review. And I do know the definition of ethnicity thank you.
retsuki03,
As for the politics, of course I was making it poilitical because Michael Moore is political. He kind of automatically is place in political settings and contexts. I understand you didn't like his films, but your post seemed to me to be like veiled political baiting so I responded in kind to illustrate that. I thought since you are a rookie, and you like to talk about politics, that the Politics thread is a more appropriate forum to discuss things. (I wasn't trying to personally attack you, I was responding to what I perceived to be).
As for suggesting an appropriate thread/forum to post, it's done all the time, I see nothing wrong with what I did so get over it.
