If you’re like me, you love a good 80’s flick.
But if you’re like
Fisher Stevens, you cringe at at
least one.
Hackers and TV’s
Many of you no doubt recall
Short Circuit, the 1986 gem about a woman and her robot pal.
The movie had all the necessary elements for box office gold: sci-fi tech, Ally Sheedy,
Police Academy’s Steve Guttenberg, and a fantastic song courtesy of El DeBarge.
Relive the magic:
The Chicago native’s character, Ben Jabituya, was
Indian.
Speaking to Yahoo Entertainment, the self-described “white Jewish kid” expressed agony:
“It definitely haunts me.”
Short Circuit actor Fisher Stevens regrets playing an Indian character
May 13, 2021 by:
SHORT CIRCUIT is probably one of the most memorable films of the 80s, thanks mostly to the likable talking robot, Johnny 5. Released on
May 9, 1986, Johnny 5 still feels like a next-level movie star, brought to life via a combination of then-cutting-edge special effects, as well as old-fashioned puppeteering and a solid vocal performance from Tim Blaney. While Johnny 5 has continued to age well for most fans of the film, one element of the movie that seems frozen in time is Fisher s Stevens performance as Indian engineer Ben Jabituya. Fisher Stevens, a white man, plays up the heavily stereotyped role for laughs and would continue to do in the 1988 sequel but now Stevens says he would never do that part again today.
