Sorry to Bother Boots

from Film Threat · host Film Threat

Writer/director Boots Riley delivers a dystopian vision of the future that is not far from our present in the bizarre comedy sci-fi, Sorry to Bother You. Cassius Green (Lakeith Stanfield) discovers he has a gift and uses it to climb the corporate ladder in a journey that ends... well, not how you'd expect. Capitalism, using your white voice, Danny Glover, and the history of hip-hop music dominate the conversation about one of the year's most controversial films. Chris Gore and Dante James delve deep with director Boots Riley over drinks at the Scum and Villainy Cantina. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
