Bamboozled 2000 R, 135 min. Genre: Drama
Director: Spike Lee Cast: Damon Wayans, Savion Glover, Jada Pinkett Smith, Tommy Davidson, Michael Rapaport, Thomas Jefferson Byrd, Paul Mooney, Sarah Jones, Gillian Iliana Waters, Susan Batson
Spike Lee takes on racial bias in the television industry as Harvard-educated black writer Pierre Delacroix (Damon Wayans) develops a show for black tap dancers Savion Glover and Tommy Davidson. The catch is that they will be made up in black face and perform in a minstrel show. The show is a hit, but its success does not come without repercussions from all sides.
