DESCRIPTION

The Oscars (and Hollywood) have been criticised this year for a lack of diversity in its award nominations - in fact Oliver's video accurately describes them as 'whiter than a yeti in a snowstorm fighting Tilda Swinton'. Instead of just addressing the nomination controversy - Oliver's video attempts to get to the root of the problem, by criticising the lack of roles for non-white actors. Christian Bale and Joel Edgerton, stars of Exodous: Gods and Kings are the wrong end of some of the harshest jokes, due to their ill-advised casting in a film about Ancient Egypt, as well as Mickey Rooney, Jake Gyllenhaal and Marlon Brando, all of whom have played contentious roles during their careers.
