Bringing Down The House - The Table Scene

In this scene we have Queen Latifah, Steve Martin, and Kimberly J. Brown (of Guiding Light fame), Angus T. Jones (of Two And A Half men fame) and Joan Plowright (although she's done a million movies, I always remember her from the Dennis The Menace Movie). Steve is trying to get a contract signed by this rich old lady. He asks her to stay for dinner. Latifah pretends to be the maid. This is hilarious. The old lady starts singing an old Negro spiritual about slavery which angers Latifah.

The woman's ignorance is what's funny, not the racist connotations. It's actually a good satire in a way.

@drummerhustla087 Actually a lot of black people find this extremely funny me included. P.S. you really shouldn't say "you people" to refer to black people. It makes you come off sounding ignorant even tho I'm sure your a nice person and I'm not being sarcastic :)
