Hollywood Shuffle (1987) is a film depicting the stereotyping of African Americans in film and television. Directed by Robert Townsend. Written by Robert Townsend and Keenan Ivory Wayans. Featured in the film are Robert Townsend, Keenan Ivory Wayans, Damon Wayans, Dom Irrera, Don Reed, and John Witherspoon. Produced by Robert Townsend. Released by MGM Home Entertainment. 1987. 81 minutes. Rated R. The film is available on DVD. Many people advise black actors to watch this film to get an idea of what they might be in for if they decide to pursue an acting career

Production & Storyline The movie was written and directed by Robert Townsend, his first. It is Hollywood folklore that Townsend produced the movie by using his own money and credit cards and making the crew wear college sweatshirts to keep from paying filming fees. The credit card angle was played up in the film's trailer (included on the MGM DVD release), which is hosted by Townsend who reveals that the film was financed by his credit cards. As the trailer ends, he begs the audience (even suggesting that patrons take a Homelessness with them) to see the film as repo men repossess the set's furniture. He's eventually reduced to finishing the trailer by the light of a disposable lighter when the electricity is turned off.

The movie is centered around Bobby (Townsend) and his quest to make it as an actor in Hollywood. He is stuck working at a fast food stand with some hilarious and demented characters who consistently try to destroy his plans for the future.

When he finally gets a break, it is for a role that makes him question his own morality. Should he join the system and play stereotype roles? Or should he say 'no', and possibly destroy his dream of becoming an actor?

As he travels around he frequently has 'visions' which are shown to us the audience. They are visions of the possible future roles he could have, the consequences of playing stereotypes, and so forth.

Visions Here is a short list of his visions:









The film's most talked-about vignette involved a parody of Siskel & Ebert's television show, re-titled Sneakin' In At The Movies. The "show" featured two African-Americans dressed in street clothes named "Speed" and "my homie, Tyrone" running into each other inside of a movie theatre that they had snuck into without having paid for tickets. They then proceed to review four movies using street dialect to express approval and disapproval. For example, in reviewing "Amadeus and Salerius", Speed's entire review consists of yelling "Bullshit" at the screen. When the two critics disagreed on the movie "Chicago Jones and the Temple of Doom", Tyrone threatens Speed with the words, "Im'o bust yo' ass". The two give a negative review to "Dirty Larry" and instead of giving it thumbs-down, the two give it "the finger". Finally, the duo lavish praise on the film "Attack of the Killer Street Pimps", giving the movie a "high five". The "show" ends when Speed and Tyrone are caught having snuck into the theatre and are forcibly ejected.
