Casting for the lead role?
I say Alfred Molina.
But he’s too a good an actor, he could probably make that piece of filth come off sympathetic as directed by that moronic sack of crap, Stone.
Cast some insane Hollywood marxist that won't need to actually act to play the role. Alec Baldwin would be good. If Fred Armisen can be Obama, Baldwin could certainly be made up to look latino. If that's too controversial, just cast an actual latino like Martin Sheen (who would require the same makeup job anyway since he's a "white latino", but there's no arguing with lefties to say it's racist to have a non-hispanic play a hispanic)
Sheen is small guy he would need a fatsuit. :D
I share your disdain for the Hispanic/Latino classification, no other ethno-linguistic group gets that kind of treatment. Neither are races. A lot of are White including Sheen and everyone from Spain, some are Black. The people usually refereed to as “Hispanic” or “Latino” here are darker skinned folk (”brown”) of mixed white and Amerindian blood, Spanish word “mestizo”. I think they are certainly numerous enough to be considered a race of their own. Just calling them Brown would make sense, “pardo” (brown) is what mixed race people are called in Brazil. East Asians are called “amarillo” (yellow) that would be “racist” here of course.

Just whipped up a quick latin american version of Alec Baldwin in photoshop. He’d need latex ears to match Hugo’s, but otherwise all the facial features are perfect. And it would save Oliver Stone time from having to finish the script. Just put Alec in front of a camera and ask him to tell us his thoughts about Bush:

Hugo and dead series.
Separated at birth!
Sheen can play Kim Jong-Il.
It’ll be fine, White people used to play Asian all the time, Marlo Thomas played a Chinese girl on an episode of “Bonanza”.
