Bernie Mac stars as Jay.
Once again, Spike Lee goes where no other filmmaker dares, straight into the fascinating controversy of Louis Farrakhan’s Million Man March and the larger question of what it means to be a black man in modern America. A riveting film, GET ON THE BUS follows a group of different men traveling from Los Angeles to the march in Washington, D.C. On the way, they will make friends, make enemies and make history. Lee’s incredible cast includes Charles S. Dutton as the inspiring driver of the bus, Andre Braugher as a rage-filled actor, Isaiah Washington as an iconoclastic gay Republican and the revered Ossie Davis as Jeremiah, the spiritual leader of the men.
