Hollywood Shuffle, the 1987 satire co-written, produced and directed by and starring Robert Townsend, was a comedic poke in the eye of Hollywood for its stereotyping of Black actors. With a budget of 100,000, the pic opened to critical acclaim and pulled in 5.2 million at the box office. It featured a series of vignettes and fantasies that Garrett wove into a film that inspired the Washington Post to write that it’s technical proficiency “should thoroughly embarrass those studios.”
