Strange activism conversations

[bcholmes]

I was talking to the woman sitting beside me at the theatre last night. We were playing the "what are you seeing?" game. Me, I mentioned that I was seeing Windfall. She said that she didn't want to see that one.

Her: "I'm not too fond of Israel at the moment. I disagree with what they're doing to the Palestinians."

Me: "I don't think it's an Israeli film. I'm pretty sure it's American. About a town in upper New York state, I think."

Her: "It's just terrible what they're doing over there."

Me (remembering): "Actually, I think the director's name is Israel. Not the country of origin. It doesn't have anything to do with Israel."

Her: "Well, I skipped that film."
