The lieutenant tells them they're from those oppressed groups, and that most of the people in those groups worked hard and got out of the ghetto. The parents of these guys are bums or unlucky and their kids are "white trash."
That's part of the verbosity of the film, but in a film, that's okay, I think, because a film is less a "fantasia" than a stage show with a "dream ballet." Of course there are some films that are fantasias, but I wouldn't call this one or the 1961 film fantasias. |
