Review of Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song (1971) by Eric T — 23 Oct 2007
Forerunner in the "blaxplotation" genre, this film is more about celebration than exploitation. Melvin Van Peebles pulls every cinematic trick out of his endless hat. Impressive, tasteless, brilliant, and fun to watch.
You never know what will come next in this film as Peebles classic. I wish I made this...
