What I didn't mention was Shaft in Africa, so I am now. Not anywhere near as good as the original, but still worth including on my list.

Shaft


Feb 6, 2021, 11:07 AM

I watched it in the Fox theater on Main Street in Greenville, and I was the only cracker in the audience. I saw a couple of Pam Grier's movies from that era, too. I still think she's one of the bost beautiful woman ever.
