I just stumbled onto this website today (9/21/2009). Man! I totally agree with Victoria's assessment. There was a crop of guys with real talent in this movie, but it was a terrible, degrading piece of filth. Sorry that it ruined Victoria and her daughter's evening as well.

You forgot to mention that nude scene you did in "Casual Sex' with Lea Thompson and Andrew Dice Clay.

I am by no means trying to insinuate you are a lying hypocrite, so please don't make that assumption.

I am just pointing out that you neglect to mention that you did a nude scene in a film called "Casual Sex". In the nude.

Love you, Victoria. Sorry you and A. had to see that. So glad to know I'm not the only soft-hearted prude out there. We'll stand by you!!

Victoria, As a mother to a daughter who has begun to feel the conviction of the Spirit, and as a woman who is also not of this world but in it, and as a former actress who left University due to the requirements of me that went against my conscience, THANK YOU. Thank you for warning us of the grotesque nature of this film. My children love Jack Black. He was Po, in Kung Fu Panda, and on Yo Gabba Gabba recently, so they have been exposed to him in ways better suited for children. My husband and I think that he, like many of your former cast members, is quite funny. However, we must see the comedy for what it truly is and compare that message to Scripture.

Dana, while I don't want to be so presumptuous as to "speak" for Victoria, I will say that I don't believe she was equating "lost" with "Jewish". I really don't. The fact that the writers may or may not have been Jewish is inconsequential. She was basically trying to "excuse" the material because whoever was responsible for presenting it apparently felt no sense of accountability before God (I felt the same way during "Whatever Works"). I also believe that she prefaced the meat of the article by filling us in on her past to let us know she was not coming from a place of moral perfection.

Thanks so much, Victoria. I felt the same way while sitting through "Whatever Works". While we weren't visually subjected to the bloody bowels of a sheep, we did hear about a "guy back home doing it" with one of our woolly friends ("back home", of course, referring to the bigoted, Jesus-loving, Bible-thumpin', one-tooth grinnin' south) . And I can completely understand why you cried. My husband asked me why I was that disturbed after the movie (I wasn't crying, but I was passionate), and I told him it made me sad to think that so many people were going to see it and think the message was right on the money. I was grieving, in a way.

Victoria,

I liked you on Saturday Night Live and I like you even more now. It is fantastic that you, a celebrity, is willing to listen to the Holy Ghost and look at your feelings and walk out of a movie because you have moral integrity and a conscience. I am very impressed. I have had to do this in several movies and what I find is that when I do people follow and have even said thank you to me because they didn't want to look bad but because of my example they felt the courage to do it too. Way to go. I applaud you and am happy to know that you stand for your values.
