The Rick Fumuyiwa's movie "Dope" make us immediately thinks about the John Singleton's movie "Boy'Z in hood". The main character looks like physically to the main character of the John Singleton's movie (same face, same haircut) but with a little bit difference. In the John Singleton's movie the main character is killed while the main character of the Rick Fumuyiwa's movie succeeds to integrate Harvard.

Jib (Tony Revelori), Diggy (Kiersey Clemons) and Malcolm (Shameik Moore).
