Review of Hollywood Shuffle (1987) by Sheila Benson for Los Angeles Times — 05 Sep 2003
Hollywood Shuffle is boisterous, out-at-the elbows movie making, an uneven series of skits, really, rather than a consistent whole. But there are wonderful comic moments here, alongside ones that droop from having gone on too long.
And pervading the film is an unquenchable air--of optimism, even of community, which uses comedy to address some grievous inequities.
