Movie Title: Lakeview Terrace
Release Date: September 19, 2008
Plot Synopsis
A young couple (Patrick Wilson and Kerry Washington) has just moved into their California dream home when they become the target of their next-door neighbor, who disapproves of their interracial relationship. A stern, single father, this tightly wound LAPD officer (Samuel L. Jackson) has appointed himself the watchdog of the neighborhood. His nightly foot patrols and overly watchful eyes bring comfort to some, but he becomes increasingly harassing to the newlyweds. These persistent intrusions into their lives causes the couple to fight back.

| Speaking of Black men who disapprove of interracial relationships, I heard there was an interview with Spike Lee back in the 1990s where he says he gives interracial couples a dirty stare. I read about this in Larry Elder's book "Stupid Black Men". Larry also said if a White celebrity had said that his/her career would have been over. He was talking about the double standards in the media and how Black racists get off the hook for the racists things they say. |

No, I think it will bomb, even with Samuel L. Jackson in it. |

I was thinking it could bomb myself, but then again maybe it has some potential. I say that because there are not many movies in which the racist antagonist is black. So it could spark people's interest and do great initially, possibly in its first month of release.
It may show some legs as long as it contains a decent screenplay and has strong performances from its main cast. |
