Directed by Sidney Lumet, it often gets lost among his other classics. This NYC heist flick features a motley crew of thieves that includes Sean Connery, Christopher Walken and Dick Anthony Williams. The Quincy Jones score is one of his best.
While the title song by Bobby Womack is a soul classic, this film often gets lumped with blaxploitation films, but it is a wonderful Harlem noir on par with The Asphalt Jungle.
Jules Dassin's welcome back to America film was a combo heist/cat and mouse scenario involving a Black militant organization days after Martin Luther King's assassination.
Often unfairly compared to the original and kicked to the curb, the continuing adventures of Popeye Doyle in France
Directed by Alan Rudolph, this retro-futuristic flick stars Kris Kristofferson as a world weary ex-cop just out of jail and an out of drag Divine playing the notorious kingpin of Rain City.
