You can comment on it in a separate thread about that interview.  But it's not part of the book, or the movie.  There is nothing core there at all. See, there you go.  You are calling a single excerpt from an interview with the author of a book that a movie is based on as the core of the movie.  That doesn't make sense to me.  Does it make sense to you?  If I quoted an excerpt from Lucas in an interview commenting on A New Hope saying Luke represented to him the elephant-god diety Ganesh from Hinduism when he wrote the character, would you feel the excerpt was the core of the movie rather than, say, THE MOVIE BEING THE CORE OF THE MOVIE? Nobody said "no problems with anti-semitism as a form of entetainment".  I said I'd like to see a movie about the protocols of zion, and even suggested the graphic novel as a great template for it. It's an interesting subject that would make for an interesting movie.  Will Eisner wrote a great graphic novel on the subject.  I hope someone picks it up to do a movie. No, it is not.  The movie is in no way deliberately offensive.  If you feel it is, show me a quote from Ron Howard saying he is attempting to deliberately be offensive to anyone.  Nor is it based on claims of the author...it's instead based on the fiction book this author wrote and not his interview. Did you see it? Fair enough.  Your view is different than mine, but I accept that some people agree with you on the acting and plot.  Can you suggest a way you would have done this movie with a better flow to the plot?</blockquote>
