  • Bamboozled è un film del 2000, diretto da Spike Lee. Il titolo del film è tratto da un discorso di Malcolm X: «Vi hanno raggirati, fuorviati, imbrogliati» (la parola bamboozled significa infatti questo). Scrivendo la sceneggiatura, Spike Lee affrontò la rappresentazione degli afroamericani nella cultura popolare statunitense. «L'immagine degli afroamericani è stata sabotata. Basta pensare ad Al Jolson, all'avanspettacolo dei cosiddetti minstral», asserì il regista. e risultando uno dei flop più brucianti nella carriera del regista afroamericano. Il film comunque si rifece ampiamente nel mercato dell'home video, risultando il film di Lee che ha riscosso più successo in DVD. Spike Lee accusò dell'insuccesso la New Line Cinema, che distribuì il film negli Stati Uniti. «Non hanno creduto nel mio film e quindi non hanno aggiunto nessun investimento a quello iniziale», disse il regista.
