Forgive me if there is a thread for this type of thing already.
I’m having a hell of a time remembering the title of film I saw. It was the late ‘90s or early-‘00s. It might have been something from a film fest even. It was a quirky indie comedy/drama. The main character was African-American and wore glasses. He and or the film might have been British?
Anyway, if you’ve any clue. Thanks in advance.
Best

...Any plot context? Setting? Or....

Honestly, that’s an issue. I think it was a fish out of water story? Lead actor was slightly awkward. His glasses were thick black frames.
Protagonist may have had a meet cute. Perhaps a road trip was involved. Poster or box had pink on it.
It might have been British or French.
I’m trying to remember if I saw it while working at Blockbuster (and so a feature film) or as part of film fest and maybe it was a short film (in which case it’s lost to the ether). I would know the actors face if I saw it. It was from the late 90s or early 00s.

Are you sure this was a movie?
Not a dream?

Hah! That is so funny! I was JUST watching Garth Marenghi's Dark Place.
But that is a good guess. Are you thinking of The Watch?

I know that guy.
It definitely wasn’t a dream. Another distinct image I have is of the dude sitting either in the back seat Or front of a car sandwiched between two others. It was a comedy no doubt.
It was an indie film for sure. It’s killing me that I can’t picture a costar to look up as well.
This will be my “rosebud”
