This is one of the best examples of Encounter Theatre I've seen--and a great satire too! It reveals many of the core truths about racism between Blacks and Whites in this country. And because of the upcoming general election, it is especially powerful. In an age of media terrorism such as we've witnessed with Rev. Wright, media can be a tool for ill or for good. Indeed, it's time to stand up and BE BLACK BABY!

It's satire, man, you have to see the whole thing. He's not playing a cop, he's playing a peeping tom/pornography playing a cop in a radical theatre troupe in an experimental film within an experimental film. This ain't GoodFellas.

Only White and Jewish LEFTISTS of filthy rich backgrounds - y'know, the ones who successfully pretend to sympathize with Blacks,to manipulate them to scare the White Lower and Middle Classes,while secretly hating them in private - the Bill Ayers/Bernadine Dohrn/Weather Underground/Berkeley/Michael Moore/Bill & Hillary,Larry King,etc,types, are the ones deserving of such tactics and humiliations. Us Whites who are Racially Conscious,who get slandered as racist/right wing,etc,know better.

this is a truthful and amazing piece of mainstream (at the time) cinema.

Wow..

No wonder this is very hard to find, it's a reflection of humanity, not of hollywood.

Any one know of a torrent for this? I'll rip that sucker and keep posting it in parts on youtube ..unless someone k nows of the entire film on youtube??

Thanks for posting this.

I love the acting, they break their character a few times (the blonde chick) but that's part of why I love the film so far.
