Robert Downey Jr. (Tropic Thunder) on your left or C. Thomas Howell (Soul Man) on your right. I think I'm going with C. Thomas on this one as the jeri curl brings it home.Downey Jr. on the left is playing Kirk Lazarus, an Oscar winning actor who dyes his skin in order to play a black character in the most expensive Vietnam War film ever made. Confused? Tropic Thunder is directed by Ben Stiller and also stars Jack Black, Nick Nolte, Tom Cruise, Matthew McConaughey and Tobey Maguire.

One of the other writers on Highbrid Nation wrote about Robert Downy playing a black man. He worries that Al Sharpton might have something to say about it, lol. Honestly as a black person I think it's kinda cool that movie make-up has gotten to the point where you can make someone look like another race and if the pics I've seen of Robert Downy in costume are accurate than they did a really good job! Plus Robert is a very capable actor so I'm sure he wont come across as stereo typical or offensive. I could be wrong though.
