Dissecting the Casual Racism of “Airplane!”
Airplane! (1980) is a fun spoof comedy with lots of laughs, right? I watched this film for the first time the other night. I loved it. Then came the racist jokes.
Onkel Bill fra New York
Hans Høj is the director of Music-Boxen. He also has an uncle, Uncle Bill. Uncle Bill is the super-duper CEO of the Music-Boxen group, which is based in New York, and Hans is the director of the Danish branch because Hans is Bill's nephew. That's right! Hans also has a lovely wife, Susanne, whom he has loved for three months, argued with for three months, and who has therefore moved away from him—every day—for three months. That's right! Susanna has a sweet and understanding mother, Helga. Uncle Bill has a sweet and uncomprehending daughter, Kate. Finally, there is the sweet, talented, and understanding head of the Danish branch of Music-Box, Johnny.
