Zebrahead is a 1992 film, directed by Anthony Drazan and starring Michael Rapaport (in his first film role) and N'Bushe Wright. Set in Detroit, Michigan, the movie is about an interracial romance between a white man and a black woman and the resulting tensions among the characters. The movie also stars Kevin Corrigan, Ray Sharkey, Lois Bendler.
Spike Lee's drama Jungle Fever was released in 1991, and Zebrahead was released the following year. As both films deal with interracial romance, Zebrahead was seen as an attempt to capitalize on the popularity of Lee's movie. It was overlooked as a result.
This movie was released as "The Colour of Love" in the UK.
[edit] Soundtrack
A soundtrack containing hip hop and R&B music was released on October 13, 1992 through Ruffhouse Records. It is best known for containing Nas' first single "Halftime".
