Question by junebaby2006: What was the name of the movie that stared Eddie Murphy in the 80s?
It had something to do about the portrayal of black media in the 80s and was about a production/movie company making movies including a black karate kid (eddie) and 3 slaves trying to escape. I think it was produced by someone notable like Spike Lee. The ending is Eddie character leaving the company b/c he found it to be too degrading.
