A Day in Black and White is a 1999 American drama film written and directed by Desmond Hall.
A young black writer, asked to write and present a speech on race relations, reaches out to a white friend for his input.
As the two discuss the speech and the racial issues being addressed within it, their differences in views transform a friendly conversation into a heated debate.
The pair continue their argument on and off throughout the day, as they discuss a variety of racially-charged topics, from the OJ Simpson trial to disco and interracial dating, with each other and a number of other characters.
[5] Godfrey Cheshire of Variety wrote A Day in Black and White was "(s)incere, insightful and sometimes flat-out hilarious", but stated "the pic suffers only from being a string of clever, topical dialogues rather than a fully fleshed narrative".
