We Need to Talk about Cosby plot

During his nearly 50 years in show business, Bill Cosby became one of the most recognizable black celebrities in America. With a career that included an astronomical rise on television in the mid-1960s, work in children's programming and education, legendary stand-up performances and albums, and a groundbreaking hit sitcom "The Cosby Show," Cosby was a model of the blacks for millions of Americans. . But now, thanks to the brave and painful testimonies of dozens of women, we know there was a sinister reality for the man once hailed as "America's Dad."

Documentary in four parts about a black American cultural icon who was mercilessly knocked off his pedestal. Bill Cosby was sentenced to up to 10 years in prison in September 2015 for the sexual abuse and rape of multiple women. Like The People v. OJ Simpson, each part deals with a particular phase or facet of Bill Cosby's life. Part 1 concerns his first successes as a comedian and television actor, with which he bridged the gap between white and black. Part 2 deals with the first accusations that came during a period when Cosby assumed an image as 'the ideal father'. Part 3 covers the cultural impact of The Cosby Show and how and why people turned a blind eye to Cosby's fairly overt cross-border behavior and the final part shows how Cosby's reputation was finally ruined. Kamau Bell speaks with some of the most prominent victims, as well as with Cosby's colleagues who, despite everything, still consider him a mentor and friend. A well-balanced, well-researched documentary from which many lessons should be drawn. It took an unexpected, but telling turn when Cosby was found 'not guilty' on appeal – due to a formal error.
