Welcome back to The Stream episode 27, our first recording in different rooms.

In our main review, we are talking about Hollywood Shuffle available on Amazon Prime

Hollywood Shuffle is a 1987 satirical comedy film about the racial stereotypes of African Americans in film and television. The film tracks the attempts of Bobby Taylor to become a successful actor and the mental and external roadblocks he encounters, represented through a series of interspersed vignettes and fantasies. Produced, directed, and co-written by Robert Townsend, the film is semi-autobiographical, reflecting Townsend's experiences as a black actor when he was told he was not "black enough" for certain roles.

Then in our Buffering segment, in "honor" of the current situation, we are handing out our personal Top 5 isolation movies. These are movies we personally love and have some aspect of isolation or confinement in them.
