Angela Bassett has a Bone to Pick with Woody Allen

Angela Basset told The Daily Telegraph that she’s unhappy with the portrayal of black women in Woody’ Allen’s latest film, Vicky Cristina Barcelona.
She said: "I mean, to have one black cast member for the whole film seems rather strange, and, oh yes, she's a prostitute, of course.
"Don't get me wrong, I love Spain and it looked beautiful, but that part of the world is so diverse and, really, what is that about?"
She also added that she has no desire to work with him.
"I wouldn't want to. He's a little weird," she said. Source
Haha, I agree on both points.

Angela Basset Joining Cast of ER

Angela Basset will be a regular on ER next season. She’ll play a tough as nails attending who has a shady past. She’s come home to Chicago after a few years doing charity work in Indonesia. “Angela is a wonderfully talented actress whom I’ve long hoped to work with,” said “ER” executive producer John Wells.

I hope she’ll spice things up for ER before it goes off the air next season. I quit that show after they killed off Dr. Greene with that damn brain cancer.
