Director/co-writer/star Robert Townsend skewers racial stereotyping in show biz with his acclaimed independent comedy. Would-be actor Bobby Taylor (Townsend) struggles to find serious roles in a white-run Hollywood that only offers blacks "pimp and hood" parts, while dreaming of fantasy spots for "The Black Acting School," "Sneakin' into the Movies," and "Rambro: First Youngblood." With Anne-Marie Johnson, John Witherspoon, and Keenen Ivory Wayans, who co-scripted. 81 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English Uncompressed PCM mono; Subtitles: English (SDH); audio commentary by Townsend; interviews; theatrical trailer; essay.
