You have asked and you have received, Dead Presidents was a recommendation we've been getting for a longtime so I decided it was the right time to finally get it done; can't go wrong with Chris Tucker and Keith David too!

You can’t judge the Vietnam Veterans that became drug users. To be forced to fight a war and to come back home viewed as war criminals, would take its toll on anyone in the same position. This movie was full of life lessons, which is why I don’t understand why it wasn’t nominated for so many awards (well, I do know why, but I digress). Dead Presidents is a powerful piece of American cinema that should be praised for the topics it covered

Add to that how VERY little we knew about mental health back then. Today you can get therapy online with your phone or a pill for almost anything. The term PTSD wasn't even added (to the DSM?) as a real medical term until the 80s - well after this war. Soldiers were called "shellshocked" - it was seen as weakness. Soldiers were expected to pick themselves up and keep it moving. Most folks didn't associate the night terrors, drug, and alcohol abuse with a mental condition. People were unsympathetic because we truly didn't have a clue...

It warms my heart to hear you say “Keith David!” Knowing that mans name on first sight is awesome. I’m enjoying your foray into films with a predominantly black cast. And since you’ve covered all the base material you could go ahead and watch “ Don’t Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Juice in the Hood” which a parody of all the 90/00s movies you’re reviewing. We need pup cameos btw. 🐶

The character of Anthony was put into the perfect storm of chaos. He was desperate and determined to make a better life for himself. While he meant well, he went about it in a way that cost people's lives. I do respect anyone who tries their best, even if they utterly fail. If only all of the characters could have found a good way to deal with their problems. My advice to everyone out there reading this. Work hard, find your passion, respect others, respect yourself, take responsibility for your actions, love the best people in your life, fight for all that is right in your life, try to understand all people, educate yourself and those around you. None of us can do all of these things everyday. Don't chase perfection just always make a strong effort. These things are a road map to a fully well lived life.

I’m just going through all of the movies that I’ve already seen. This is another favorite. The thing about Juanita is that she was young when Anthony went to war. She had a child to take care of and she chose to use another man. Can’t blame about not knowing about war. She had no clue. And nobody knew about PTSD back then. He came back and he was just another person for her to take care of. And he broke the communication with her so she really just didn’t love him. WILLY WONKA AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY

Domestic violence is never ok. Don’t forget the era in which this moving is filmed in and things that need to be noted. He was an African American male/ a teen- young adult growing up in the late 60s and returning home in the 70s. He already had ptsd from racism at the time. (And probably a lot of toxic masculinity) Mental illness was not “thing” as it was now. Soldiers of color or black were not treated equally in the war, as they were at home. - It’s the not realizing and reading between the lines for me, though. That woman was a young, single pregnant black mother at the same time he was a soldier… no idea what was going on with him for YEARS, invited him to live in a home she had already established with a child she had been raising on her own.. fast forward to now in a live in less than romantic or ideal situation w/a partner whom she did love suffering, drinking himself to death, not getting help,underpaid/out of work ex soldier , expecting a child by him AGAIN. - I rant with all this to say, don’t erase her to just some bitchy girlfriend who was an ass. The little screen time she had didn’t display in motion EVERYTHING , but read the room.

Glad that more people are showing Dead Presidents love! The Anthony and Juanita relationship sadly has a lot of roots in reality. A ton of soldiers came home from Vietnam and had their lives basically upended with the issues that they had and the lack of care (both mentally and financially) drove a lot of guys to horrible ends. Some turned to crime like Anthony, Skippy, and Jose, others got sucked up into drugs, and others ended up lost on the streets. This is a tragic story for sure. I'd recommend Barbershop for a review, along with Don't Be A Menace, and Scary Movie. Love the channel guys!

Dead Presidents was the initial follow-up to Menace 2 Society by the Hughes Brothers, and while it lacks that movie's structural cohesion and cultural impact, it is by far the more interesting and ambitious of the two, trading in the preachiness of Menace for a shoot-the-moon, triple-decker reimagining of the black American experience as a 1970s genre flick. It also has Keith David in total badass, Godhead mode, and sports one of the best soundtracks of the era.

Awww man! I was 18 or 19 when this came out. My mother brought it on VHS. I also brought the Soundtrsck to the movie, one of the BEST soundtracks you'll ever buy. From what my mother told me, many men that came from the Vietnam War weren't the same when they returned. Things were a harder, jobs were VERY hard to come by. Many were looked down on when they returned. The Vietnam war was a BIG mess, a hit ppl hard but it hit poor and Black communities the hardest. ALSO Lawrenzo Tate and Chris Tucker did a music video with Issac Hayes for the song " Walk On By". You guys are DOPE! Thank You 👍🏽🔥🙏🏾🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
