I'm a movie buff and grew up watching all these great flicks: The Mack, SuperFly, Black Caesar, Sparkle, Coffy, Foxy Brown, Truck Turner, Cleopatra Jones! But my all time favorite flick back then was J.D.'s Revenge! Use to go to the Roxie, The Lux and the Eastmont Cinemas! We probably know each other by face! Small world! Nuff Said!

Wow. I saw The Mack when I was a kid. I did not know the history behind it until now. I always remembered Max Julien as the star just like I remember Richard Roundtree as Shaft and Ron O'Neal as Super Fly and of course Pam Greer as Coffy. I actually saw Pam Greer and Willie Hutch once when they came to the Lincoln movie Theater in Washington DC for a premier. I waited in the rain for them. This was way back in the day so no cell phone camera. I just have my memory which is good enough. :)

I have ALWAYS said that about Max Julien as well. As a matter of fact the OLDER he got the MORE APPARENT it became. If anyone disagrees, then just look at his Native American features. Many African Americans are mixed with Native American ancestry. I still have a book that I purchased in the 90's titled "BLACK INDIANS" written by William Loren Katz who explained the relationship between the two groups. I have Cherokee ancestry in my family and I can still see the features of Native Americans in many of my African American family members. Most groups of Native Americans refuse to acknowledge this and years ago on the news I saw a tribe who wanted to cut all ties with their African American brothers and sisters. I cannot remember which tribe though. RIP Max Julien.

The story of Goldie is about my friend Fahali Wards daddy Frank Ward and his brother Tony Ward from Louisiana who migrated to Oakland in the 50's and grew to be the biggest gangster in Oakland. Unfortunately my friend daddy didn't see his movie made because Fahali's daddy Frank was murdered right before the movie The Mack premiered in February 1973, he died at the young age of 33 years old. The question is who murdered my friends father Frank Ward ? Well word on the streets in the early 70's it was allegedly the Black Panthers!!!! Yes, Huey Newton and Bobby Seals are possibly responsible for my friends father death!!! I watched this movie being made as a child in Oakland and I watched my friend Fahali Ward sad everyday not knowing his daddy Frank, but Frank left his son a 1972 silver and grey Rose Royce I used to look at almost everyday. There is more evidence that point to the Black Panthers pertaining Frank Wards death but you'll have to wait until my book comes out about the city of Oakland. I will be talking about the Black migrants who left the south after World War II to become long shore men in Oakland to the introduction of Lesane Crooks aka Tupac Shakur!!!

Just as Ron O' Neal was the perfect actor to play Priest in "Superfly", Max Julian was the perfect actor to play Goldie in "The Mack." They both infused their characters with an incredible blend of power and charisma along with an underlying vulnerability. These outstanding lead performances are why these films still resonate today with younger audiences.

I am from Oakland, California. I knew several people who were in this movie . The kid who was in the scene who said he wanted to be like Goldie is now a bus driver for Muni. The guy in the barbershop scene who had on purple is a pastor of a church now and the club scene with the soul group who wore blue the lead singer is my best friends father I think the group name was The Moments .

My beloved university Morris Brown band theme song was The Mack. We would blast any band out of the stands in the SWAC with that song.. (see Drumline)

I remember this movie when I premiered, but was not allowed to see it. However, the title song, Brother's Gonna Work it Out by the great Willie Hutch, resonated pride and hope, at the time, was and continues to be a monumental creation of genius.. I have gained new insight to this movie and the parallel messages that are referred to, and I am grateful and humbled by the audacity of the knowledge and wisdom of the messages.

A Masterpiece. There will never be a sequel to this era. Real FBA'S on the struggle of the 70's. Oakland was a great City in the early 70's. Power To The People

I've seen this movie more times than I can count. My two favorites lines: When Goldie is talking to Slim in the bar reflecting on how women would risk their lives on the street to get her Pimp's money and he tells Slim, "Oh, I'm not talking about me; I'm talking about those other dudes". And when Pretty tony loses his girl to Goldie in the pool hall and his only retort to Goldie was "You ain't no pimp; you're a rest haven for hoes"
