Goes from being hustled to finding friendship and romance
Black Joy was a rare for its time British film on the Caribbean community in London. The story focuses upon Trevor Thomas as Ben Jones a new immigrant from British Guyana and Norman Beaton as Dave King a con artist. Jones is a fish out of water who has a rough time adjusting to life in England.<br /><br />The movie has a great start as Jones is mistreated left and right. For instance he gets stripped searched by immigration because they think he might be involved in something illegal and then a little kid robs him. He’s a target for anyone that wants to take advantage of him.<br /><br />The movie turns out to be about friendship and romance and there’s plenty of comedy thrown in as well.<br /><br />During this period blacks in England were facing increased racism with the declining economy and the emergence of racist groups like the National Front. To see this slice of life film then was infrequent to say the least.<br /><br />On top of that the film has a great mix of Reggae and Soul-Funk hits throughout the entire film.<br />C
