Synopsis: Bamboozled (2000)

Pierre Delacroix is a hip, young, Harvard-educated writer who is the sole person of color working for an upstart network with floundering ratings. Despite several attempts, Delacroix has yet to see any of his concepts go into production. Now his boss, the ratings-hungry, culture-vulture Dunwitty, issues him a searing ultimatum: come up with a hot, trend-setting,...
Pierre Delacroix is a hip, young, Harvard-educated writer who is the sole person of color working for an upstart network with floundering ratings. Despite several attempts, Delacroix has yet to see any of his concepts go into production. Now his boss, the ratings-hungry, culture-vulture Dunwitty, issues him a searing ultimatum: come up with a hot, trend-setting, headline-making, urban hit or get fired. Feeling doomed, Delacroix decides to present the most outrageous, unbelievable farce of stereotypical comedy he can imagine - hearkening back to the old days of "black-face" minstrels with a variety show featuring Manray, a homeless tap dancer, and his sidekick Womack. Incredibly, Delacroix's spoof turns into a ratings bonanza, a cultural phenomenon that has the media pundits raving and audiences of all types howling.

    Couldn't Have Said It Betta' Myself!!!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jul 19, 2001

    This movie has done obviously what everyone else has been afraid to do...speak the truth! When a movie makes you angry but you can laugh, cry and DO understand, or just plain want it to never end, you know it's good! It was a history lesson as well... as another wake up call. A call for African Americans to stop being so acceptive of the roles we are 'allowed' to play in Hollywood. And to pay more attention to were we put ratings. We are just as responsible for how people see us if we allow the wrong images to continue being broadcast. I found the excerpts of Good Times and Jimmy Walkers' infamous "Dynomiiiiiiiite" and The Jeffersons' with George (Sherman Hemsley, I think), and that ridiculous walk he would do. It just makes you think! But it was an excellent, awesome way to help in understanding even why the movie was titled Bamboozled. Although, Good Times is my all time favorite sitcom, along with the Fat Albert cartoons, which Lee also injected splotches and sketches, it is always important to remember that someone behind the scenes is thinking about selling and creating more controversial and even stereotypical images. Bravo Mr. Lee!!!! I could not have said it betta' myself. You have taken my respect for you to a whole new plateau! Much love and respect. May you never bite your tongue, and always keep it real!~~~~~~~~~~Southerngu
