Dope
In the 1990s, all you had to do to get the latest fashion trends was shoot the person wearing the clothes you wanted.
Unfortunately, as this dramedy confirms, nowadays you have to actually purchase your Air Jordans.
When a local pusher (A$AP Rocky) asks him for a favor, '90s rap aficionado Malcolm (Shameik Moore) and his friends (Tony Revolori, Kiersey Clemons) find themselves sitting on a backpack of MDMA belonging to a Harvard alumnus (Roger Guenveur Smith).
Although Malcolm agrees to sell the powdered Molly for the cultured kingpin, in exchange, he wants to be accepted into the Ivy League university.
A satirical commentary on the limited career choices for African American males, Dope is a smart and stylish coming-of-age anecdote with notable cameos, an imposing soundtrack, and a charismatic young lead, that never feels preachy or accusatory.
Incidentally, you only have to sell inhalants to get accepted into Yale.
