Solo's Got Soul!

I met Souléymane Sy Savané in Beverly Hills about a year ago.
Now look at him! "A Force of Nature!"

I really liked this film. It's dark in context, yet shows how far the human spirit can take you in celluloid story telling.


GOODBYE SOLO: Movie Trailer - The best free videos are right here

"Goodbye Solo" is one of those joints that any and everyone can relate to.
From urbanite white women who've ever wondered about those 'africans' she bought her bootleg Coach bag from; to artsy fartsy 'students' who ponder the meaning of life endlessly through chain-smoking and uninspired painting.

We're dealing with a film that's Colderthanarats@ss here, I hope you cats dig it more than 'Slumdog . . .

easy.

Black Excellence is Dynamite

I want to congratulate my brothers; Suckapunch and AJ of DP Sound along with Michael Jai White for the successful Sundance negotiation and sale of their film Black Dynamite.

I just watched this interview which confirmed one of my greatest curiosities about how people will react and respond to this movie.

Here, David Poland, the interviewer and presumably a 'white guy' makes comments during his interview referencing 'bitches' and 'malt liquor' as if that's the essence of the blaxploitation ethos represented in the piece.



I'm just hoping this doesn't turn out to be another example of certain folks laughing at the wrong parts of the film and missing the significance of others.

For the rest of my people, enjoy. The Action is Awesome and the film is Colderthanaratsass!
