Black Pride fairy tale about an Atlanta "homeboy" whose dream comes true: he lands a job as a local newscaster, only it has the nightmarish drawback of turning him bit by bit into a white man. There's a chastening moral to the tale, and a contradictory (or amoral) happy ending. A black man imitating a white man -- in vocabulary, diction, gait, etc. -- is always good for something, even if not always for a laugh, and even if the black man is Terrence "T.C." Carson and not Richard Pryor. With Lisa Arrindell and Blanche Baker; directed by Michael Schultz. (1991) — Duncan Shepherd
