Plot Summary for
Bulworth (1998)

Page 11 of 33

A mix of hip-hop and politics, after putting a hit out on himself Senator Bulworth becomes a rapping politician that isn't afraid to say anything he wants and offend anyone he wants to.

Summary written by Guy Johns

Senator Jay Bulworth (Warren Beatty) has become completely disillusioned with all of the lying, cheating, and money-grubbing aspects of politics, so he hires a contract out on his own life. He decides that before he is killed, however, that he is going to ruin his reputation and alert people to the shabbery of politics by delivering racist and hate-filled speeches to the public...that is, until he falls in love with a black woman (Halle Berry.)

Summary written by Laurence Mixson

Bulworth is a Democratic Senator running for re-election in Calfornia in 1996. Depressed by cashing in on the right wing trend in politics at the expense of his beliefs, he orders a hit on himself after having taken out a huge life insurance policy. His imminent death allows him to speak out in a brutally honest manner that is true to his old liberal, and even socialist, beliefs. He does so in the form of rap music discovered after having fallen in love with a black woman from South Central Los Angeles.

Summary written by Daniel Mongraw {culture_jam@hotmail.com}

After taking out a massive life insurance policy on himself and hiring a hit man, Democratic Sen. Bulworth decides to have some fun and tell the truth as he sees it in rap rhythm and with lots of F-words. Then he decides he doesn't want to die, and intermixes being late for campaign events, giving interviews which lambast the right-wing media conspiracy for failing to promote "that's right, socialism," and chasing a skirt, with trying to un-hire the Mafia boss in charge of his murder. All the while proving: white guys can be cool, too, in a geeky sort of way, and even gangstas respect caring.
