Benicio del Toro: Pendejo

What does an actor that portrays a murdering coward in a movie do when being asked hard questions and bitch slapped by reality?

Why, he just walks out, of course.

Haha, what a pussy. He can't even defend his own work. I hope some day to have a few words with that prick.

I tried to post comments on the Washington Times site. Each time some *^&^()&* interruption occurred and the screen went blank.

Were my level of paranoia running higher than is usual, I might think TeamBo was indulging in preemptive censorship.

So here I post. What else can one say? che failed at everything with one exception, and in that exception he was a stunning success: mass executions of defenseless men and boys.

Whatta hero. As Alan Stang tells us, 'show me a nation's heroes and I'll tell you about that nation'. Is this the level to which we've sunk, glorifying dingbat sociopaths whose sole talent is the slaying of innocent?

WashTimes posters can't understand why we'd trash this interminable piece of garbage without first seeing it. Don't we tell others to not eat sun-dried, worm-encrusted dog droppings, not even taste them? What's not to understand?

Some insist Benicio did in fact carefully research his magnum opus. They may rest assured. He did. Too bad he limited his research to the verbatim copying of - under watchful eyes of Ministry of Propaganda goons, no doubt - cagasstro's lies known euphemistically as 'the che diaries'.

As for the manner in which Benicio answers inconvenient questions by fleeing them, isn't he following the lead of actors in high places?

Cut the poor guy some slack. It's his agent's mistake: when scheduling the interview--he mistook "The Washington Times" for "The Washington Post."

Humberto,

Is that The Washington ComPost?

Hey, I suspect both the director and actor have been re-educated. There is quite a difference in their tone from the first interviews.

Who the heck is "... uhm ... ahh ... Benito del Toro"?

Typical estadounidense, he could not even get the idiot's name right. What else is new in the land of the monolinguals?

Curiously, no one else seems to have noticed it, tremendos cubiches en estos lares caballeros.

Either we didn't notice or we decided it was no big deal, Angel. I mean, it's not like many people in Latin American countries speak English fluently and can pronounce many English names correctly, right?

Robert ... pardon Angel ... he's so culturally refined, that he never had time to learn that pointing out another person's minuscule imperfections is not very polite.

He has also spent all his time learning the many foreign languages of our world, therefore can't add anything meaningful to the discussion of any topic.
