Never heard about this movie. Good job KZbin.

I love these black movies of the 70's!!

Me too

[@tonydavis2936]

47 years and nothing have change!!

[@jeremywilliams5141]

Yeah. Nowadays, they're even calling the police on us for doing ordinary things. Or falsely accusing us of crimes.

[@maximusprime3459]

When they first show Abar with those shades on he looks like Dave Chappelle

[@Tamunett]

Agreed.

[@michaelheater1969]

Looking like Dave and sounding like Eddie 😅

[@timothyjones3564]

Or he also looks like Bokeem Woodbine .

[@pgangsta357]

He sure does lol 😅

[@WarriorSmurf]

And sounds like Eddie Murphy.

THIS MOVIE IS A GEM!!!! I've heard of it before but never knew it was this good!!!

[@ANKHRASET]

I don't know how I missed this movie and I used to be a usher in the movie theater back in the day in the 70s...

[@ericmccaulley5008]

Dave Chappelle should have gotten at least an Oscar nod for his performance in this film..

[@leg414]

Love this! A trip in time to 1970's! Peace

[@descipleshipfollowersofyes4539]

the 70s was an amazing decade to grow up in, i only wished there wasn't so much hate back than 😊

[@xalleem8117]

If you think about it there was more community love and we all knew our neighbors ....today is a lot more distant with everyone trapped in cyberspace and most of us don't even know our neighbors...

[@RoanAnthony]

Much more hate now than then.

[@thomasvarley380]

Far more hate now than then .

Far more and malicious they just don’t try to hang us publicly

This is my first time seeing this movie. I like it!!!

[@joycepatrick4118]

I love these types of black based movies more than the so called new aged black ghetto era, it's lots more class and style.

This is better than Wakanda

[@MrJ-dc3yz]

Sure is and it came out way before Wakanda.

[@WaldoBagelTopper]

@@MrJ-dc3yz Correction. Wakanda, and in general, Black Panther came out in 1966. This movie came out in 1977, 11 years after Black Panther number 1. So Wakanda did, in fact, come out before this movie.

[@mcfact1827]

Thank you for using the term BLK of the 1970's movies. 👍

[@richardbehappy5412]

Nothing has changed after 50 - 60 years even more. That poor Wade boy shooting by the Pasadena Police Dept 10 years ago is really sad and I cannot ever forget it. And I am not black. And the family was forced to settle for hundred thousand dollars for wrongful death. Really sad.

After the son was offed it would’ve been a big problem after that. And where’s the Black Panthers? Can’t lie….they need a remix for this movie tho. It’ll be wayyyyy better now. And it’s not Superman……more like Martian Manhunter lol The end was blah. We ain’t hugging and getting along either

[@Tamunett]

Hmmm

[@sixnine365]

Always with the babbling and attempted misinformation. Even if there were nicer white folks in LA (which I would find hard to believe), the movie isn’t about them. This movie correctly depicts the racist actions and attitudes of the vast majority of white people in LA and most of the US during that time period. We already know what it was and didn’t need this movie, as great as it was, to remind us. FOH!

[@SupremeNerd]

If they were there wouldn't have been such thing as The Black Panthers from Oakland during that time
