An open letter condemning Jonathan Glazer's 'Zone of Interest' Oscars acceptance speech has been signed by more than 450 Jewish Hollywood professionals. The group denounced Glazer's controversial comments made when accepting the Academy Award for best international film. The letter reads in part, "We refute our Jewishness being hijacked for the purpose of drawing a moral equivalence between a Nazi regime that sought to exterminate a race of people, and an Israeli nation that seeks to avert its own extermination."
