‘Racist flick’ tiff
An Asian-American group is up in arms over plans to screen “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” in Brooklyn Bridge Park, alleging that Mickey Rooney’s portrayal of a buck-toothed, bumbling Japanese man is racist.
The 1961 classic is part of the Park Conservancy’s free summer movie series.
The Conservancy declined comment.
