Review of The Harder They Come (1972) by Andrew U — 30 May 2008
Well, well, well....what can I say, probably the best Jamaican film ever made, even better than "Rockers" which is more like a documentary. The movie hits hard on social injustices and the cutthroat Jamaican music industry with producers and studio owners 'making' you a 'star' on their terms and paying very little while lining their pockets with cash.
Jimmy Cliff is excellent in this movie and I rate the soundtrack, easily into one of my favourites of all time.
