Peter Fonda, who tweeted that he wanted to put Barron Trump in a age with pedophiles has not been disciplined at all by Sony. Obviously, there is different treated for Peter Fonda because he’s a left wing extremist Democrat and Roseanne Barr. Instead, with Sony’s no actions against Fonda, the people are punishing Sony and Fonda with their pocket books. So far, since the movie’s last week release, the move is a major flop at the box office. I couldn’t be happier.
After it made headlines in Hollywood for the wrong reasons, Sony Pictures Classics’ “Boundaries” is off to a tepid start at the indie box office, as it opened on five screens this weekend. Directed by Shana Feste and starring Vera Farmiga and Christopher Plummer, the film has made $30,395 for a per screen average of $6,079.
This past week, Peter Fonda, who has a minor role in the film, posted an angry Twitter rant aimed towards President Donald Trump and his wife and son, Melania and Barron, that was a knee-jerk response to the White House’s family separation policy towards undocumented migrants and asylum seekers.
Fonda’s role in Boundaries is a lot like his IQ, very limited.
Trump Jr.’s tweet and the subsequent furor from conservatives prompted a statement from Sony Pictures Classics saying they condemned Fonda’s remarks as “abhorrent, reckless and dangerous,” but adding that removing his small role from the film days before release “would unfairly penalize the filmmaker Shana Feste’s accomplishment, the many actors, crew members and other creative talent that worked hard on the project.”
