NEW YORK — Can you imagine a world without President Donald Trump?
Robert De Niro, the Oscar winner and Tribeca Film Festival co-founder, would sure like to, denouncing the current commander in chief during Saturday’s closing night premiere of The Beatles-inspired movie „Yesterday“ at the fest.
In the film, “the world wakes up and has never heard of the Beatles,“ De Niro said before the screening began. „It made me sad but it gave me an idea for another film, one in which the world wakes up and has never heard of Trump. That would be a film that would make us all really happy.“
The comment earned enthusiastic applause from the audience, which continued throughout „Yesterday,“ whose trailer became a minor viral sensation when it premiered in February with more than 30 million combined views to date on YouTube.
