Chris Mattson (Patrick Wilson) and Lisa Mattson (Kerry Washington), a young interracial couple, have just moved into their California dream home when they become the target of their next-door neighbor, who disapproves of their interracial relationship. A stern, widowed-single father of two, LAPD officer Abel Turner (Samuel L. Jackson) is the watchdog of the neighborhood. His nightly foot patrols and overly watchful eyes bring comfort to some, but he becomes increasingly harassing to the newlyweds. The persistent intrusions into the lives of Chris and Lisa ultimately take a turn for the worse when the couple decides to fight back.

MOVIE REVIEW:
Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times gave the film a very positive review, awarding it a score of four stars (out of four) and saying: "Some will find it exciting. Some will find it an opportunity for an examination of conscience. Some will leave feeling vaguely uneasy. Some won't like it and will be absolutely sure why they don't, but their reasons will not agree. Some will hate elements that others can't even see. Some will only see a thriller. I find movies like this alive and provoking, and I'm exhilarated to have my thinking challenged at every step of the way."

Kerry Washington interracial coupling in Lakeview Terrace isn't her first time. She also played in the movie "The Last King of Scotland" starring Forest Whitaker.

Young newly-qualified Scottish doctor Nicholas Garrigan (James McAvoy) heads to Uganda seeking adventure and escape from the bourgeois life of his father.

Kerry Washington as Kay Amin in The Last King of Scotland
In the film Garrigan, has an affair with one of Amin's wives, Kay (Kerry Washington), and gets her pregnant. While seeking an abortion in a nearby village, Kay is caught, executed, and mutilated by Amin's forces. Garrigan sees her mutilated cadaver knowing that he has caused her death: his actions (and his initial refusal to provide the abortion himself) left her no choice in her course of action. As a result of this trauma, Garrigan decides to assassinate Amin by poisoning him, under the ruse of giving him pills for a headache.

Can't wait to see what white folks will have to say about this movie....



...white supremacists will love this movie (and they will never see it, can't give SLJ their cash even indirectly), it speaks to their soul and sensibilities, if only black men were disappeared, what a wonderful world it would be for black women and white men!
Really I don't see the need for this movie, its overkill.
With the assistance of black skinned women like TBanks, it is already strongly suggested that sisters should expand their options, and begin to look lovingly and longingly upon the great grandsons of their great-grandmother and great-grand-aunts rapists.
This movie highlights the power of the white supremacist/racist to control the nature of the dialogue.
