Director Ron Howard discusses ‘The Dilemma’ gay car line
”I was a little surprised by it because you sort of see that used on TV shows and, you know, especially comedies, a lot. But, I would say ‘yes’ and ‘no,’ because it was completely out of context that they were evaluating it, and it was a piece of advertising…. This was sort of something being thrust upon people.”
