Alfred staan op vir sy vriend Leon Schuster
Alfred Ntombela, die gewilde akteur wat gereeld in die Schuster-treffers te sien is sê op sy Facebookblad: They say my friend is racist, but if you would check his movies are full of South Africans and that means his proud of us being united and one. These movies where made for us to laugh and to show that we're proudly South Africans.
Van die boodskappe op Alfred se Facebookblad sluit in:
Faziel Daniels – Out of all south africans i think leon schuster was the least most racist person in the world….. Sad that a legend like him has to go down in history as this…. We know the truth leon we all with you
Tangie van Schalkwyk – My small son loves you guys now showmax does not have them because our government decided its racist. They crazy man it’s pure sa fun. And you two are awesome together.
Dean Galvin – So sad, his movies united South Africa, actually showing that we can all get along, but that’s the problem, politicians can’t take peace and they need that drive to keep them going, so they’ll always stir race hate to benefit from it
Hy het dit gesê nadat dit aan die lig gekom het dat Showmax stilweg besig is om Leon Schuster se films te sensor deur dit in die geheim van sy dienste te verwyder. Baie is dit eens dat Showmax se besluit ‘n gevaarlike presedent skep met talle ondeurdagte gevolge vir die publiek, vir Afrikaanssprekendes en Multichoice-aandeelhouers. (Showmax, DStv en M-Net word deur Multichoice besit.)
Behalwe vir die komedie wat Schuster in sy films aanbied, is talle aspekte daarvan parodie wat as ‘n spieël dien vir die Suid-Afrikaanse samelewing waardeur rassisme in der waarheid op ‘n sublieme wyse ondermyn word. Daarom word Schuster se films waarskynlik deur die Grondwet beskerm.
