Bamboozled
I believe that De la Quoa, or however you spell his fancy french name was the Trickster character in the movie or may reasons. For starters, he was a man full of deceit, and lies. He would make you think his intentions were good, and genuine, and then drop a bombshell by eventually revealing where his true intentions really lied. I never could quite figure out De La as I'll refer to him for the rest of my post, which I believe even further strengthens his position as the Trickster throughout Bamboozled. He at first seems to be offended by his menstral show that hes created, but eventually it seems to grow on him, and hes almost proud of what hes created, in a really sick, and weird way. I do not understand how an african american can watch his fellow man make such a mockery, and a fool out of himself for money, and or entertainment. In the end I believe De La realized what a pivitol mistake he had made, however this could also be simply due to the fact that he had multiple gun shot wounds, and was about to die. Most people in my opinion, tend to try and make peace, and sense of the world right before they die, which honestly is such a waste of time. Why not live your life trying to make peace, and sense of the world....Rather then screw it up your whole life, and then in your last moments seek redemption. This movie pissed me off. It was offensive, and wrong. I felt the moral of the story was portrayed perfectly, and yet I still find myself wanting to know more...I wish it didnt end so abruptly.
