You know it’s true hate when an actor begs people to stay away from his movie. In a recent appearance on “Conan,” David Cross strongly warned the audience not to see his new Alvin and the Chipmunk movie “Chipwrecked.” He called the movie “a big commercial for Carnival Cruise Lines” and the executive in charge “the personification of what people think about when they think negatively about Jews.”
Looks like someone’s got his never-nude knickers in a twist. I must say, Cross’ honesty is a breath of fresh air in a world where actors tout their crappy flicks on a regular basis, though maybe he could have done without invoking classic anti-Semitic stereotypes. Long live Tobias Funke!
