This liberal douchebag thinks he can visit Iran one time and think he knows everything about their culture. What a joke. I guess he hasn’t seen the HUNDREDS of stories of honor killings that come out of Islamic countries every year. It’s no secret, all you have to do is follow the news in the Middle East. Clueless Penn, once again making his mark.
DID Sean Penn’s sympathy for Iran’s ayatollahs help cripple the box-office prospects of a recent Harvey Weinstein movie?
Sources say Penn, who traveled to Iran in 2005 and sent wordy dispatches to the San Francisco Chronicle, demanded to be removed from “Crossing Over” because he objected to an “honor killing” scene of an Iranian woman slain by her brother.
The Weinstein Company flick on the immigration issue, budgeted at $20 million, is a multi-plotted drama, like “Traffic” and “Crash,” starring Harrison Ford and Ashley Judd. Although Penn shot scenes playing an enforcement agent, sources told Page Six he insisted he be cut from the movie,which has grossed a paltry $292,254 since its release three weeks ago. The Post’s Lou Lumenick panned its stereotypical characters who “spout tin-eared dialogue.”
Penn’s rep told us: “Sean’s portion of the film was somewhat experimental as it had a mystical quality that the rest of the film did not have. His not being in the final edit was a creative decision of which he was aware.”
