...in what we are willing to accept. And, you're right--familiarity has a lot to do with it. A black actor playing Hamlet woudn't bother me, but part of that might be that Hamlet tends to transcend the time for which it was written. It doesn't really matter that Hamlet was a Dane in the grand scheme of things.Americans are notriously naive about other cultures and ethnic groups, and "Memoirs of a Geisha" is just another in a long line of examples regarding Asia.
