The Albino Code (2006) is a short film parodying the film version of The Da Vinci Code. The Albino Code was written and produced by, and stars, Dennis Hurley, who has albinism. The film pokes fun at the depiction of people with albinism in Hollywood films by parodying the Da Vinci Code character Silas. Hurley's film points out flaws with the portrayal of Silas, namely that most people with albinism do not have pink eyes, and that due to their impaired vision, they could not function well as assassins.
Famous quotes containing the word code:
“Many people will say to working mothers, in effect, “I don’t think you can have it all.” The phrase for “have it all” is code for “have your cake and eat it too.” What these people really mean is that achievement in the workplace has always come at a price—usually a significant personal price; conversely, women who stayed home with their children were seen as having sacrificed a great deal of their own ambition for their families.”
—Anne C. Weisberg (20th century)
