Actor Viggo Mortensen says the biggest strength of his upcoming feature Green Book is that it is not preachy.
In an interview with Collider, the 60-year-old actor said the film's story is not limited in terms of relatability, which he believes is a great thing. "What's great about the movie I think ¿ and this only matters if the movie's good. Let's face it, if it's entertaining and you enjoy yourself. It's a movie that invites you to feel, to laugh, but also to be very moved, and invites you to think," Mortensen said.
"But it doesn't tell you to think. That's its strength. It doesn't preach to anyone," he added. The comedy drama, directed by Peter Farrelly, features Mahershala Ali as African-American classical pianist Don Shirley and Mortensen as Italian-American bouncer who served as Shirley's driver and security. The actor said the film is not "made for one segment of society".
