Cornbread, Earl and Me (1975)
Cornbread in 1975 is relevant to the lives of young Black men in 2006

How many young Black men have been shot by police in the past few years? Ignoring the number of men who have actually committed a crime, some police officers seem eager to shoot up our young men. Consider the young man out for the evening with friends celebrating his bachelor party. Disgusting and they never get what they deserve. Yes it is political--what meaningful movies aren't?
It is meaningful in that the 1974 movie just foretold what was to continue for years to come. It was rather goofy and poorly written but despite the script, the people in the movie are fine actors.
I liked it because it showcased some of the best actors in Hollywood from that period.
Watch it and judge for yourself.
