Susan Sarandon Calls The Pope A Nazi
While appearing at the normally very stuffy Hamptons Film Festival over the weekend, Susan Sarandon decided to shake things up a bit. Seriously, usually the most exciting thing that happens at the Hamptons Film Festival is someone mistakenly wears white thinking it is the Hamptons so they should be able to get away with it, but then get chided or worse, shunned because it is October. During a Q&A with Bob Balaban, Susan was talking about how she sent a copy of Sister Helen Prejean's book to the pope. She then said, "The last one. Not this Nazi one we have now." When Bob hinted that maybe Susan might want to back down from that statement, she called him a Nazi again. I think at this point in her life most people know Susan has some very strong beliefs and is definitely not shy about sharing them. Whether it is ping pong or popes, Susan is going to let you know what she thinks and feels and does not really care if you share the same opinion or not.
