I always thought FOXY BROWN was just a rushed, sloppy rehash of the first and in fact I like the star-packed FRIDAY FOSTER better.<BR/><BR/>Jayne Kennedy in THE MUTHERS...I actually just reviewed this last week! She was really a supporting character to the (even yummier IMO) Jeanne Bell and Rosanne Katon. Trina Parks was really funny again, and it is a shame she hasn't done more film work.Halhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09291930694234773688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14169925.post-58614119669315789622009-02-25T20:29:00.000-05:002009-02-25T20:29:00.000-05:00Aw, you beat me to the punchline with the Hey Love...Aw, you beat me to the punchline with the Hey Love commercial link!<BR/><BR/>"No, my brother, you got to buy your own!"<BR/><BR/>Did you know that Penitentiary was (say it with me) Jamaa Fanaka's Masters thesis. It features our pal from Rage In Harlem, Badja Djola. That scene you cite was intense as hell.<BR/><BR/>Right now, I'm too distracted watching Coffy to write the Pam piece that needs to go up here! Eventually I'll do it.

I will opportunistically tie fact #2 in with my crackpot thesis that even the "lowest" of '70s screen entertainment amounted to far more intelligent storytelling than today's Oscar contenders (not you, Slumdog--you aight).<BR/><BR/>But, for real, the big attempted-rape/takedown scene in Penitentiary is about 400% longer than a similar such episode would be in a modern day guy movie. It was one suspenseful moment of brutality/ingenuity.<BR/><BR/>Sounds like a fantastic book. <A HREF="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKu78xJ6g1k" REL="nofollow">Let me borrow it</A>Steven Boonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10533736956366847765noreply@blogger.com
