Good Hair (2009)
In the movie SCHOOL DAZE, Spike Lee staged a dance number in
which two bands of African-American college students debated
the merits of "Straight and Nappy" hair in song, and now
comedian Chris Rock and filmmaker Jeff Stilson have extended
the conversation to a full-length film in this witty documentary
with serious undertones. Rock says he was inspired to make the
film when his young daughter asked him, "Daddy, how come I don't
have good hair?" and he and Stilson examine black America's
obsession with their hair. They visit the Bronner Brothers
International Hair Show, an annual trade show for the African-American
haircare industry which includes fierce competitions among stylists
from around the country and demonstrations of new hair products and
techniques. Along the way, Rock also talks to a number of
African-American luminaries about their hair issues (including Maya
Angelou, Reverend Al Sharpton, Nia Long, Raven Symone, Ice-T, and
Paul Mooney), researches the dangers of many common hair-straightening
treatments, reveals the surprising expense of regular hair "relaxing"
and weaves, and ponders what the pursuit of straight hair says about
African-American cultural identity. GOOD HAIR received its world
premiere at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival.
