3rd attempt to write à review. Trying too hard to catch you by the collar and look you in the eye and tell you this: I Witnessed what may be the greatest performance an actor has ever delivered.

Roger Gueneur Smith has been in a lot of films Spike Lee choice often. Even was in a daytime soap for a goodly stint.But he is smart.

The man Huey P. Newton is your friend
