Producer Jason Blum was booed offstage at the Israeli Film Fest, where he was being honored with Achievement in Film & Television Award, for making anti-Trump remarks during his speech.
Blum was booed from the start, when he referenced the election results that were rolling in at the same time as the event.
“A lot is on the line, the last two years have been hard for all of us who cherish the freedom as citizens of this country,” Blum said.
“The great thing about this country is that you can like Trump, but I don’t have to, and I can say what I feel about it — and I don’t like it!” he continued. At that, a few people began walking out of the Saban Theater in Beverly Hills.
The booing and shouting continued to increase in volume while Blum tried to talk over it.
