hey look and deal with it and there be much good portrayal of the hardship of black america than this . although i think this story be weak and my criticism be focus on the poor execution of the story and which i have mention and blow . this be make in the mid 80 and be horrible in the music or score department . it funny to see oprah a a latter day crack whore type . the scene where big stuff elizabeth mcgovern into the incinerator . pure classic cinema . first off and i do not care how drunk you be and you will react to 1200f degree flame ( no matter how bad your act ) . but they really milk that scene . it be comical . i will tell you what though and i have great satisfaction in see elizabeth mcgovern burn in a faux death while she annoy me .
