The writer of Oscar-tipped film Green Book has apologised for a 2015 tweet in which he said he saw Muslims in New Jersey celebrating the 9/11 attacks.

Nick Vallelonga tweeted his support for Donald Trump, who said he had seen "thousands and thousands" cheering - a claim that's been widely discredited.
Vallelonga wrote that Mr Trump was "100% correct", but has now said sorry "for the hurt I have caused".

He won a Golden Globe Award on Sunday, and the Oscars are now six weeks away

Somebody told me this is a good movie - it’s playing at an art theater 40 minutes from me. It’s probably best enjoyed, though, without knowing too much of what went behind the scenes. :emoji_worried:
