BlacKkKlansman
Spike Lee's stunning crime drama tells the stranger-than-fiction true story of an African-American police officer who infiltrated the KKK in the 1970s.
Drama 2018 135 mins
Director: Spike Lee
Overview
Newly minted Ron Stallworth (Washington) is Colorado Springs’ first African-American police detective. Itching to start working on a big case, he phones the local chapter of the Ku Klux Klan and – surprise, surprise – gets a call back from David Duke (Grace), the KKK’s Grand Wizard, himself. Stallworth, over the phone and using his white Jewish colleague Flip (Driver) as his avatar, grows more influential within the organisation, while secretly working to bring them down.
Spike Lee’s latest, a rousing crime drama with stark moments of levity, was rapturously received at this year’s Cannes Film Festival.
