This Lou Dobbs-dissing trailer for Under The Same Moon (Fox Searchlight, limited) is fairly amusing. Created in-house by the Fox Searchlight guys, It’s airing on CNN today, and particularly on Dobbs’ news and commentary show.
Patricia Riggen‘s film, written by Ligiah Villalobos, is a heart-warming tale of a Mexican immigrant mom working as a domestic in Los Angeles, and her Mexico-residing son from whom she’s separated. Dobbs has been hating on illegal Mexican immigrants for years. There are three quotes in the trailer alluding to the film’s presumed emotional effect upon Dobbs — making him cry, melting his heart, etc.
