11th August 2009

Roll over Michael Moore and Bill Maher, there's a new kid on the documentary block. Chris Rock's Good Hair' takes the microscope to America's multi-billion black hair industry and judging by the trailer, he's got the hang of the medium pretty quickly. Click here to watch it.

Good Hair was inspired by Rock's daughter who asked him "Daddy, how come I don't have good hair?", prompting the comedian to grab a camera and discover for himself the pressure on black women to have fine looking locks ("If your hair is nappy, they're not happy"). Directed by Rock's fellow stand-up Jeff Stilson and featuring cameo appearances from Salt-n-Pepa, Ice-T and Al Sharpton, Good Hair' got a rapturous reception at this year's Sundance where it picked up a Special Prize.

There's no word of a UK release, but if you're in the US you'll be able to catch Good Hair in cinemas from October 9.
