I finished reading this script about two weeks ago and am now only getting reviewing it.  This script, much like the author's other scripts is a slanderous and absurdly funny attempt at showing how racist white people are.  Reading this only confirms the obvious fact that Max Malloy is a racist.

All the characters are two dimensional sterotypes (atleast in Max's eyes).  White people are all evil.  Black people are all hard working and virtuous, despite being kept down by the man.

What is describe in the logline above takes place in the first three or four pages.  Slavery ends.  Master rapes slave.  Master kills slave's husband.  Master kills slave.  In her dyuing breath, the slave places a curse on the master and all his descendents (and all white people.  She dies.  The master dies minutes later.  No one else heard thte curse, but somehow a  historian in our near future knows about it.  How?  Who knows.

Anyway, about twenty years in our future, a television news convention takes place in Jamaica.  Here all the female blonde-haired blue-eyed newscasters reveal their sexual escapades to each other.  They all slept with Jamaican men and all had the best sex of their lives with these men.  Their bosses find out.  All hell breaks loose.  These news producers (all white) all choose to broadcast news stories of black men breaking petty crimes to make the black race look bad.  Any crimes committed by white people, no matter how severe, are swept under the rugs.

The female broadcasters all band together to reveal the bigotted producers and are all fired.  They all form the White-Chicks-Who-Screw-Black-Men-And-Hate-Bigotry Society.  Their intent is to bring the Man down which they do with court cases and lawsuits so ridiculous that Judge Ito would cringe.

This script, like the author's other scripts, is so out of touch with reality that it's comical and counter-productive to what the author wanted to do:  show how bigotted the white man is.  The court room scenes are like something out of a shitty soap opera.  A little kid, whose entire legal knowledge could come from television court room shows, would have a better understanding of courtroom procedings.  

And, correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the author is a retired cop.  Did you not spend one minute in a courtroom?

This script is just Max's mandingo wet dream.  By the end of the story, every white woman in the world is having sex with black men.  That's what I call projecting.

This script is worth looking at.  It's so funny, it should be placed in the comedy section instead of drama.  In fact, I recommend that people look at it just so people can see how not to write a screenplay.
