BAMBOOZLED

He gave us 'Do The Right Thing', 'Malcom X' and 'Summer of Sam' Now Spike Lee is back to burn up the screen in this searing indictment against racial stereotyping wrapped up as satire.Shot in guerrilla style, with a title taken from a speech by civil rights activist Malcom X, Bamboozled is revolutionary cinema-shocking, confronting and explosively provocative. But the real stinger is that it's also brutally funny.Damon Wayans is Pierre Delacrois, a pretentious Ivy League television writer who has been ordered by his wannabe home-boy boss (Michael Rapaport) to create a hit television show skewed to African Americans. As a protest, he develops a new millennial minstrel show, so offensive he believes it will start riots. But it is a massive hit and his whole belief system explodes in his face.What follows is a biting satire on media and manipulation delivered with a fierceness not seen since the Oscar winning Network and a structure reminiscent of Mel Brooks' hit comedy The Producers.
