Packet 5: Tossup 7

In the late 1990s, Roger Guenveur Smith wrote and starred in a one-man play about this organization. For (15[1])a film about this organization, the lead actress wrote poems her character recites that include the lines “what magic a philistine and a poet could create” and “can it please have your dimples?” Criterion’s Eclipse series couples Uncle Yanco with Agnès Varda’s (“on-YES var-DAH’s”) documentary (15[1])about this (15[1])organization. (15[6])Otto (15[1])Preminger tries to grab and talks over a member of this organization at a (*) party hosted (10[1])by Leonard Bernstein (10[1])in Tom Wolfe’s (10[2])essay “Radical Chic.” The smear campaign against Jean Seberg was due to her support of this organization, which had its members watch The (10[1])Battle of Algiers and a Mario Van Peebles movie about Sweet Sweetback. For 10 points, Daniel Kaluuya won an Oscar (10[2])for playing what organization’s chairman Fred Hampton? ■END■
