Review of Blue Collar (1978) by Lesley N — 05 Sep 2010
Arguably one of the Seventiest of Seventies movies, all guts and steel and murky politics. The three leads are on top form â?? Pryor leaves you wishing heâ??d had more straight roles, while Yaphet Kotoâ??s performance reminds you what a fine actor he was in this period.
Itâ??s not exactly subtle, but itâ??s remarkable to revisit a time when (relatively) mainstream cinema actually offered films like this. The closest youâ??ll come now is Season Two of The Wire.
