delysid d @RT67044741 11/30/2018 this is sort of like a black version of all in the family or something, it might be a good movie for some mild mannered folks but its not an exploitation film See more 01/27/2016 Crossing another unseen Blaxploitation film off the list, this one was a very pleasant surprise as it covers very different material from other films of the same era. We see a previously meek wife finally start to stand up for herself and her children with their (presumably well meaning) domineering father, and it's a helluva lot of fun. It was well worth tracking this one down, give it a look. See more 03/26/2014 not bad B movie fare See more 02/26/2012 What this movie lacks in production quality and even acting/direction is made up for in content quality. It makes a pretty decent attempt and defining a black family of the 70's that was stretched across several extremes of social idealism. I've got to give it to them. I was tempted to give up on it several times but I'm glad I didn't cause by the end, not only did it make me think, but it left me with a warm feeling that is all to rare with movies of this era/genre. See more 01/25/2012 Before Tyler Perry and Spike Lee there was Brock Peters and his attempt to instill Black Pride and family togetherness. Take a closer look at this top film from 1973. See more 10/02/2011 A stark contrast to most of the African American films of the early seventies. Very positive. See more Read all reviews
