Um Príncipe em Nova York (1988)
O Príncipe Akeem descobre a América.1h 56min
Sinopse
Akeem (Eddie Murphy), o príncipe herdeiro de Zamunda, África, se rebela contra o casamento arranjando por seu pai, o rei Jaffe Joffer (James Earl Jones), que concorda que o filho viaje pelo mundo por 40 dias. Assim, Akeem vai para Nova York, se passando por um pobre estudante para encontrar uma noiva que o ame pelo o que ele é, não por sua posição. Vai trabalhar em uma lanchonete e sente-se atraído por Lisa (Shari Hadley), a filha do seu patrão, Cleo McDowell (John Amos), que é interesseiro e atrapalha o romance, pois quer um bom partido para a filha, sem imaginar quem é na verdade seu funcionário. Akeem viajou com Semmi (Arsenio Hall), seu melhor amigo, que não gosta de se passar por pobre e faz gastos e toma atitudes que podem revelar a identidade de Akeem.
