Bamboozled
In his most controversial film to date, filmmaker Spike Lee sharply skewers racist imagery in American pop culture and its effect on society. TV network executive Damon Wayans tries to get out of his contract by proposing a minstrel-style variety series featuring black actors in blackface. Much to Wayan's dismay, the show, fronted by dancers Tommy Davidson and Savion Glover, becomes a hit. Jada Pinkett-Smith and Michael Rapaport also star.
