Description: Dolemite Is My Name Movie Screenplay Script Book FYC Academy Awards OscarsFor Your Consideration 2019 New Dolemite Is My Name is a 2019 American biographical comedy film directed by Craig Brewer and written by Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski. The film stars Eddie Murphy as filmmaker Rudy Ray Moore, who is best known for having portrayed the character of Dolemite in both his stand-up routine and a series of blaxploitation films, which started with Dolemite in 1975. In 1970s Los Angeles, Rudy Ray Moore is a struggling artist working in a record store, trying to get his music on the air in the in-store radio station. At night, he moonlights as an MC for his friend Ben Taylor and Taylor's musical group at a club. He asks the owner of the club for some time to do comedy, but the owner turns him down. At the record store one day, a homeless man named Ricco comes wandering in and begins making loud, rhyming proclamations; one of which includes the name “Dolemite”. (The real Moore recorded a number of prominent street poets, including Big Brown.) Moore gets the idea to create a stage persona telling these stories at the club, where he works. Dressing in pimp attire and brandishing a cane, Moore takes the stage at the club as Dolemite and launches into a crudely humorous and foul-mouthed routine titled "The Signifying Monkey". Taylor and his group join him on-stage to back him up. The crowd applauds.
