In attempting to do more than merely identify harmful stereotypes, research on 'films and race' appropriates ideas from post-structuralist theory.

Here, in his own colorful, slangy words, is the true American Dream saga of a self-proclaimed -film geek, - with five intense years working in a video store, who became one of the most popular, recognizable, and imitated of all filmmakers.
