COMEDY A struggling young black man begins a dizzying ascent up the corporate ladder at a California telemarketing firm after he discovers his ‘white’ voice. From then on things get ever more surreal in this scaldingly funny satire. Lakeith Stanfield makes an engagingly befuddled hero, ably supported by Tessa Thompson as his vexed girlfriend, while Armie Hammer is hilariously over-the-top as his awful boss. Dir: Boots Riley 2018, 15
