[Breitbart] Actor Vincent Curatola, who starred as Johnny ’Sack’ Sacramoni in the classic HBO series The Sopranos, lamented the growth of "politically correct" attitudes in America, offering his remarks in a Friday interview on SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Daily with host Alex Marlow.Marlow invited Curatola’s comment on the suffocation of creativity in the arts via "political correctness."
"One of the things that’s so striking to me ... is the political correctness age we’re in now, which is bigger than ever," said Marlow. "Comedians have to watch what they say. You can’t even have a villain saying bad things, at this point. And so your characters, you guys ripped each other about your weight, about your noses, about your wife’s as. I mean, it was brutal, but it was also real and it was wildly entertaining. Your character wielded a cigarette like it was nobody’s business, and it’s one of those things where having a cigarette ‐ smoking ‐ is worse than being a murderer, at this point. Speak to that."
