Plot of the film:

Bamboozled is a 2000 satirical comedy-drama film written and directed by Spike Lee. The plot centers around a frustrated African-American television writer named Pierre Delacroix (played by Damon Wayans) who, in an attempt to get fired, proposes a modern-day minstrel show featuring black actors in blackface. To his surprise, the show becomes a hit, leading to a series of consequences for everyone involved.
The film is a biting satire of the television industry and its portrayal of African Americans. It explores themes of race, identity, and the exploitation of black people in entertainment. Bamboozled is known for its bold and controversial approach, and it remains a relevant and thought-provoking film today.
