Dead Presidents - Cutty

[@marceldaniels7712]

Cutty was only in 2 scenes of the movie but his scenes and presence stands out

[@meek1326]

Two scenes that are all time black cinema quotables

[@Anita-max-wyn]

I never noticed that he was only in 2 scenes. He definitely is an unforgettable character/actor. Beetlejuice was only in the movie for 17 minutes!

[@MrLp1980]

He does that in just about every movie. He’s never the star of a film and never the main focus but his characters always stood out. He’s probably the greatest supporting actor ever. You notice he has a connection good or bad with the main character in every film he’s been in. He should have been won an Oscar for best supporting actor.

They didn't show any of his other women but even Anthony recognized it right away. What would the streets say if they had heard that Cutty killed Anthony aka Juanita's baby daddy from the war?

To be honest, “trained soldier” does not necessarily mean you’re good in a fist fight. I was in the corps and I will absolutely say they know how to train you to be a basic marksmen. What that means is that they do teach you how to aim your rifle and let a couple go with solid accuracy. When it comes to hand to hand combat, your average marine is terrible at it. There’s an inside joke that the only thing the martial arts program does is train you to get your ass kicked in style.

Nonetheless, both did and extremely well job in this movie and especially in this scene. Initially I thought that he would take out cutty the same way he did cowboy, but cutty was a little more powerful in this movie.

[@kdaddy100]

This scene is really about what the Black man's options were during that time. It was either you was with the street game or you left to join the armed forces. Either way, both led to disfunction and death.

[@GivenThoughtBEATs]

I agree, great interpretation💯 Like you said it was either armed forces or the streets. The drafting of African Americans into the armed forces created a dynamic that changed the scope of history for blacks and several other ethnicities. The smuggling of drugs grew as the US military got plugged into foreign countries. Drugs brings guns and prostitution and destroy households, in which, this destroys the structure of the person itself. To combat the reality and faults, one goes through a repetitive cycle of destructive habits for survival. This scene really digs at the core issue within the black community in America. At the end of the day, like the cliche, it’s all about the money.

I was hoping Anthony got Kirby to deal with him but he didn't

[@bscarter100]

Because although what he did was fxcked up, It really wasn’t about him. I think the scene with him and cowboy showed his growth as a man and loss of innocence. That scene represents something different, and getting revenge means killing cutty and that’s something i don’t think he was focused on.

Clifton Powell is a Black legend. Normally small roles in movies and plays but always gives a great performance !!!

[@DiaAkin]

I can tell y'all youngins don't know shit about psychological warfare. All these comments talking about "Anthony won" when he told Cutty to "shoot me." Smh. That's not a win. In fact, Cutty NOT killing him only humiliated him ever MORE! The reality is that everything Cutty told him, was right. He DID train his woman sexually while he was away and he can't provide. He told him to his FACE he's the reason she's working him like that in the bedroom, why he doesn't deserve it, AND that he doesn't even care about her enough to kill him over his disrespect! Then let him LIVE just to further deal with the reality of his situation even longer. Anthony got up, went back to apartment with the girl he just got humiliated over, and STILL didn't know where the next meal was coming from. If that's a "win" for Anthony, the streets have definitely fell off!

[@PancakeDiaries]

Thank u... These niggas is weird. Anthony was beyond defeated. He'd been questioning his bitch just to have Cut lay it all out for him. And he don't know Anthony, so his bitch been pillow talking it up with him. Anthony still ain't have any bread, his bitch was still in the way and further disrespected him once he got inside... This moment pushed him over the edge and made him lose it all in the end. He didn't win anything here

Love how Cutty's Faux Affable in this scene. He's friendly but it's clear it's backhanded and aimed at Anthony to make Anthony feel belittled and insignificant . From the get go he's challenging Anthony. If Anthony rises to it he's succeeded in getting under Anthony's skin , if he doesn't he's succeded in punking out Anthony and exerting authority over him. Intense scene.

Looking back, I can see that Clifton Powell was still on his gangster role era from his ROC days. Whew that was a time! The transition from House Party in a non-speaking role (he played Sharaine's brother at the door when Sidney came by to piick her up for the house party) to have such a strong presence in future roles. man oh man. underrated.

[@dejaalston8672]

Cutty's main intention was to humiliate Anthony such as degrading him of not being a "real man" but Anthony did not summit to that such as telling him to kill him right their which I totally admire as Anthony was ready to die with dignity and pride. 😍😎💯👍

Anthony called his bluff when he said kill me 3:18 and Cutty got scared. Cutty was a pimp and he ruled by head games, and street violence. Anthony was a soldier, he saw real violence and mental warfare in Vietnam. He wasn’t shook by Cutty Ang Cutty knew it. That’s why he went with the teaching Juanita all those tricks. A pimp’s power is psychological not violence
