Stop gaslighting great movies because of political agendas :bouncegiggle:

Showgirls (1995) - the entire movie was cringy, but I still love it.

No gaslighting. 😎

I was born in what was then Rhodesia. That accent of Leo's is from elsewhere, not from present day Zimbabwe.

If you hear me speak you'll think I was from somewhere in England.

Regarding SHOWGIRLS, I am surprised the apartheid censor board didn't get up in arms over it but they were on their way out already.

Top Gun. Every time a pilot introduces themselves by their callsign. That's like someone introducing themselves by their gamer tag.

So, Leo was nominated for his role in Blood Diamond multiple times, including an Oscar-nomination. Mostly positive reviews by critics, lots of praise for DiCaprio. You obviously have seen the film. Do you dislike it because of the accent or did you still enjoy it?
