<p dir="auto">Quarrel started as a threatening and strong character. He was mysterious, he could fight and made a strong impression on Bond.<br />
He was a strong ally with a lot of knowledges.<br />
Then, as soon as they arrive on Crab Key, the character is treated like a supertitious dumb, afraid of everything, acting like he never saw a beautiful woman (his look at Honey).<br />
The worst part is when Bond ask him to go and "fetch my shoes".<br />
I know it was 1962 and people were still ignorant about racist matters, so I'm not saying it's a "racist movie" and I adore this film, but it is still uncomfortable to watch.</p>

<p dir="auto">Name any. I think people are just paranoid and intolerant these days. Hence them seeing hateful comments everywhere. I was watching the movie, the othet day, and thought to myself things looked better, back then. No nazi PC police, everywhere. People lived, without overthinking everything.<br />
OK. How about this clip of Judy Garland singing a song in the film 'Everybody Sing' (1938):<br />
Or maybe this song from the movie 'Wonder Bar' (1934):<br />
Does any of that seem like it might be racist to you?</p>

<p dir="auto">Must EVERY movie on IMDB have a thread accusing it of racism or sexism or homophobia<br />
It depends if the said movie really IS racist or homophobic.</p>

<p dir="auto">Plus there are white people who fetch shoes for black people and black people who fetch shoes for white people.<br />
So Quarrell fetching shoes for Bond didn't bother me at all.<br />

<p dir="auto">How about the "3 blind black killers" murdering an innocent white woman showing no signs of mercy? Wouldn't that be a hate crime?<br />
There's white bad people, dumb people, cruel people and criminals as well as black.<br />
So the 3 black killers didn't bother me at all.<br />
I'm talking about Bond acting like a master toward his slave with Quarrel, and precisely the point is we never get to see a black character talking that way to Bond.</p>

<p dir="auto">So if Quarrel told Bond to "fetch his shoes" would you still complain?<br />
How about the "3 blind black killers" murdering an innocent white woman showing no signs of mercy? Wouldn't that be a hate crime?<br />

<p dir="auto">I completely agree. The "fetch my shoes" line is what sends it over the edge. A very master-and-his-slave type moment.</p>

<p dir="auto">The worst one is Live and Let Die, which is where Quarrel first appears.  Fleming's dialogue when Bond is in Harlem is very uncomfortable.</p>

<p dir="auto">He's still a bit of an improvement over the book. In the book it became very irritating as I was reading his dialogue because Ian Fleming wrote Quarrel as speaking broken English.<br />
