This movie was very good. I am so glad that Princess aka (Harriet) realized that she didn't belong down there in Harlem, NY where she came from. She had made it out of the hood with determination and education and family encouraging her. And she has a boyfriend that really loves her who was a successful attorney. She needed to be with people like herself. It's good to help people in need but you are only one person, and you can't save the whole world. You have to do your part and help some people. Great!! movie
I agree with all of that with the exception of her being so loose outside of marriage.
Just a small note: Harlem is actually "up" there; its the Northernmost part of Manhattan. 1:19:43
I want to give a big shout out to whoever is responsible for this movie I've been looking for this movie for the longest I want to say thank you and stay blessed
This movie was a big deal when it came out in 1979. Showed an accomplished black women doing her thing. Loved it
So...it was like a proto-Insecure?
It shows SOOOOOOO VERY MUCH MORE than that.
Beautiful story and characters and situations, beautifully performed by amazing Afrikans. No blood, no guts or serious violence necessary. No nude bodies exploited... No LGBTQ-BS agenda being pushed... No...
I always find it funny that homophobes always mentioned black LGBTQ out of context. That hatred harms you, and not us, brother. Remember that Gay and Lesbian black people(James Baldwin, Bayard Rustin, and Barbara Smith) were fighting for the rights of all black people. The children always forget what their hatred ignores.
@@dadevi homophobe does not exist. Just a made up evil government propaganda. You shouldn't be upset with the comment. This movie is not pushing the garbage that is being pushed in most media today.
So beautiful to watch, we need more off these film's such an old movies bot but still relevant today love it xxx
@@missspencer7744 Amen!
The moral of this story sucks, bottom line. And we know it was produced by so-called whites.
Seeing these women in their prime and seeing them now really drives it home - time passes SO fast. Young today, tomorrow older (and hopefully wiser). Our life really is like a flower.
Rebecca,
You are sooo right, I've found that the FOUNTAIN of youth starts with the acceptance of the Word of God.
He has a lot to say on aging, it begins in the mind the central professing unit for the body.
If we can wrap our mind around what our CREATOR says about us, not what we think, read Ps 139, it says it all. I am 72 yes young same as some of the people in this movie today. I still play tennis, jog, walk, golf etc, because I embrace the Word of my Creator. I have the mind of Christ, I hold his thoughts and purposes in my heart.
lol, the arrogance of youth is a laugh, younger people make remarks about older people not seeming to realise they to will be the same age lol, its just down the road and round the corner, for you lol,,just get over yourselve,s
@@gerrie720 .
Saundra Pearl Sharp is an underrated actress
It seemed right, when's she said she rather help from where she was,some times people embrace negativity I'm stead of shunning it so they can be better people.
Watching this really took me back to my childhood when all the adults and music were like this. I love black cinema 🎥 😍 Thank you for the memories ❤️
I just don't understand why our men don't think we're good enough. Look how these successful black men were loving our BEAUTIFUL women in this movie! PRICELESS!
Because a lot ( not all) black women today don't think they're good enough, and they change their skin tone their body shape everything about themselves, and when you don't respect, and carry yourself as a queen how the hell do you expect for somebody else to? I mean if you think about it look at the kind of men or I should say the caliber of so-called men that these women are trying to impress I wouldn't bring them home to meet my dog they don't represent real black men because real black men and, real black women don't act anything like that they don't act at all they just stay real all the time. And by real let me clarify we keep it cool we keep it classy we keep it educated we keep it calm we keep it welcoming we'll keep it loving we keep it Godly we keep it peaceful we keep it together baby!!!!!
I agree Ihdollbaby, for queens or women of substance do not have to step out of character.
I guess you missed the part where Scottie was talking down on black women lol
@@ReiOfSunahine that's what I was about to say. He definitely spoke poorly about bw in the apartment
Rap music is to blame!
Watched this with my parents. This movie taught me to stay humble 😌 in life.
She had survivor's guilt. I have experienced that often. I still have to remind myself that it's okay for me to have a good life.
So well put. So needed to hear that.
Also, it’s important to understand that people are where they are meant to be for their lives. Everyone isn’t meant to leave the hood, nor do they want to.
If you get out, enjoy your freedom and don’t look back.
But don’t feel bad about it.
@@TASconfidential Amen!!!🙌🙌🙌
💯❤️❤️
Dont ever feel guilty for wanting to better your life and doing the work to achieve your goals. Be PROUD! You are motivated ,unlike others who sit and shift the blame and play the victim. It takes effort and conviction. Pat yourself on the back. When life gets tough just remember what you have worked for .🙏❤️
2024 I love these nostalgic type of movies. Still gives off hope and reality
these movies remind me of my childhood, my dad and mom coming home from work, our brick street, the street light that came on in the neighborhoods. Never ever thought of a pandemic in my life time. its 2020 and this is what help me make it through these days we live in
Thank you so much!!! I love these older films. ❤️❤️❤️
These older films were all produced by oppressors. You love that? Ok.
Thank you so much for this beautiful upload. Please keep the black movies coming. Nobody else uploads these types of movies
I saw this on television when it originally aired , it was interesting then and still is . Some Blacks find success and some don't , some want to help and some want to forget , this dynamic is still ongoing . However, it was great to see images of successful Blacks too. Just like she said help from where you are . Thanks for these great films .
Jo Jones this is about my future, as I design the way Harlem supposed to be. thanks to this film.
I think she was too confused between guilt, memories, and, as the boyfriend said: "wanting more of life." Sometimes it´s too hard to help, but it´s possible to "do" something, and that´s helping indirectly. Maybe that´s fairer for everyone; and it would give her a connection to both worlds she wanted to be in touch with.
It aired during the summer of 1979, I had just turned 13.
IN THE MOVIE 'HOLLOW IMAGE IS A PORTRAYAL OF ECONOMIC TRANSISTIONS THAT DIFFERENTIATES THE STRUGGLERS FROM THOSE WHO HAVE SURMOUNTED AND DEFEATED THE MORAL DESTRUCTIONS OF THE ECONOMIC STRUGGLES. ONLY FOR.A FEW WILL SIFTER THROUGH IN A SYSTEM THAT IS STRUCTURED FOR THE RULING CLASS--- BUT MANY DREAMS OF THE ASPIRANTS WILL BE DEFERRED BECAUSE THE SPACE IS ONLY FOR A FEW THAT THEY SEEK.
True. You can't pull anyone up if you're down in the hole with them.
Don't Stop...thank you, most of Morgan Freeman fans don't know this film exists.
And obviously he doesn't want them to. With the moral of this story being what it is, I'd be ashamed to be in it too.
@@therappermalcolm6956 You've beat the horse. Now do something useful.
Reelblack you've been uplifting me and my love for black excellence❤️🙏🏾thank you!!!!
How are you doing today my name is Eric Moore
Yes, Mike is the best! He shares so much with all of us.
Watching this movie for the first time at 35 years young I see this from a different perspective. You really can’t save everyone. Instead of Sweettalk getting his life together he wallowed in pity for himself then tried to blame Hattie for reacting to what he was. She was the first person in a long time to actually show him the truth. Danny had been enabling him for a long time. Hattie was right. Both Danny and Sweettalk were afraid of moving forward. At least Hattie attempted to come back and help unlike Paul and his buddy. In the end Hattie did what she could and still realized she could not go back and also move forward. Sweettalk robbed her and used the money to buy the drugs that killed him. Danny blaming her showed her that he too was stuck just as much as Sweet Talk. I’m glad she made the best decision for her.
One of the best movies I've ever seen. Never got bored. Saundra Sharp is BEAUTIFUL
It took me several days to get thru this movie but i always came back and also rewatched some scenes before i finally got to the end, so it felt like i had watched a bunch of episodes. This would have been a great tv show…i loved Saundra and Hattie in their roles.
These sisters both beautiful in a natural way. No fake anything 😘
EXACTLY!
notatroll18 yes
@King Khan what?
@King Khan 🤦🏾♀️
@King Khan On top of that, women that shave their cat makes me think what's going on down there. Personally I rather for it to be unshaven, just leave it natural and the hair on the head as well.
Monica: “Did you get my message?!”
Harriet: “Did YOU get MINE?”
YESSSSSS Princess, go off!! 💯👏🏾💯👏🏾
My favorite part✌😍😉 I wish princess and Danny work it out and be together in the end
Lol yes
"...He didn't know what he had become untill he saw his reflection in your eyes..."
That was deep.....
This movie deserves five thumbs up ... They say you can’t go home again... A well written and acted story of getting out of your own way to succeed and you can’t make someone change if they are happy were they are...
So many powerful messages and lessons in this movie. At some point in life, we all must face our reflection and decide what to do.
Morgan Freeman is one of the greatest actors in Hollywood.
Absolutely!!!!!!
YEP HE HAS COME A LONG WAY SINCE THAT DRUG ADDICT SWEET TALK
My Father introduced Me to Miss. Sharp as a child in the early 70' I still have the autographed picture of her with her Afro...✊🏾 Thank You. You've done it again. ❤🖤💚
Wow! you are blessed!
love my Afrikan Black movies! "Thank You! so much
The statement : I realize that I have to do it from where I am, not from where I've been, is a resounding one.
Beautiful movie, I thoroughly enjoyed.
So true!!! Hits right in the ❤️

Loved this film. I grew up in the 1970s and this reminded me of that time.
Thanks for posting. I loved this movie as a kid. I wanted to move to NY and become an actress. I’m in health care and have a great career but this took me back.
Cheryl T Beautiful health care 👑 queen
Cheryl T, We all had those dreams when we were young. I wanted to move to NYC & become an actress so bad I could taste it. I work in customer service & I have state benefits, although sometimes I wonder if I could have made it if I had pursued it?
Hattie Winston , Amazing Vocalist
Saundra Sharpe , Awesome Actress
Thanks For Sharing ❗️
This story was everything. They did not need a lot of bells and whistles to get their message across
How are you doing today my name is Eric Moore
I love that many of these actors are still alive, I hate that we don't see them in many films today.
Thank you for posting.... Excellent movie! "I want to help, and I know now what I have to do. But it has to happen from where I am... Not from where I have been." Love this!!💕 We need never apologize for "who we are". Maybe at times apologies are necessary for our behaviors, but never for our person. There is no cure for shame. In fact, most addictions are rooted in shame. Guilt is when we feel bad for what we have done. Shame is when we feel bad about who we are... We embrace who we are on the way to who we are becoming. #NoApologyNecessary!✨🦋😊
La-Sharon Isbell that's toxic advice, honestly. What about the true baddies? Should they embrace who they are and not apologize, nor feel ashamed of themselves ? - the sodomizers, the pedophiles, the rapists, the child murdrers, and etc????
- your statement umbrella them, also.
*hence, my statement!
@@pandawolfpresents You are entitled to your opinion. However, I said what I said... and I stand by what I said. Sodomy, murder, rape, pedophilia are all acts of violence; harmful, destructive, toxic behaviors. Shame is at the root of compulsive, addictive behaviors and cluster B personalities (Narcissists & Psychopaths). Shame causes self hatred and inadvertently hate for others. Shame makes a person feel bad about who they are... No one who feels bad for who they are does anything productive. Shame is at the core of Narcissistic Personality Disorder and Antisocial Personality Disorder... hence those who usually commit the most viscous crimes without even a hint of guilt or remorse. These personality disorders are formed early on in life due to neglect or overindulgence. Shame at the core of identity doesn't cure. Shame many times cripple from reaching full potential. Remorse for behavior brings healing. Life is full of people who cannot get past their past because they are stuck in shame. "I may have done what they said I did, but I am not who they said I am.... My who is not my do."
La-Sharon Isbell 😒 figured you'd say that! .... Indeed: I voiced my opinion.
To each it's own.
#youlllearnthehardway
@@pandawolfpresents Thank you... I have learned the hard way, and that is why I stand surefooted on what I have said, and will not allow some random UA-camr talk me out of my truth. What is interesting is if you really knew how I was going to respond, you probably would not have even wasted your time. That is unless you just needed a dose of narcissistic supply. What's toxic is the present day culture we live in and people who began an interaction/conversation with criticism and insults for an opposing opinion. Communication 101: Sandwich praise/acknowledgement with criticism and praise. It allows you to have a teachable moment with someone without the need to insult or shame. Besides I don't think anyone died and made you "All" Knowing. Thank God for #WisdomKnowledgeDiscernment and of course #Truth. So blessed to know who I am, what I stand for, and my purpose. Btw... this will be my last comment to you, as to not feed into your dire need for acknowledgement and relevance. #HappyHealthyWhole💕
So many true and very deep life lessons to learn from this realistic film and as you said about shame and how it causes hatred and another synonym is condemnation as well which The Most High never purposed in the beginning for us.
By choice we either allow life's struggles to cover us in shameful darkness or learn and shine through them.
Great share 👑
I love this movie! It's a hidden gem!
….And 10 years later, SWEET TALK would go on the be the craziest no-nonsense principle a New Jersey high school's ever seen !!

RIP Joe Clarke,crazy Joe "bat man"
Kind of reminds me of when Samuel Jackson was the junkie son in Jungle Fever 'Do a lil dance momma"... and then POW! There

This movie was very therapeutic for me. I saw myself and others I know in the characters. Thank you for uploading.
You are a jewel..... Thanks a million for sharing the nostalgia!!!!! The best of cinema from boomers, a few silencers!!!!!! Talented actors/actresses.... Fawn, pimp, Dick Anthony Williams, R. I. P. Gifted, attractive Morgan Freeman. Shrewd, multi-talented, handsome Robert Hooks. Cinema short lived, Lovely, Sandra sharp! Ms. ongoing, pretty, Anna Marie Horsford !!!!!! We actually styled, wore our own natural hair in the day..... Lol
I love these old movies. I saw this when I was growing up. I can not remember if it was home on television or the theatre.. Very good theme about working , and getting educated to progress in society however we must always mentor or pull someone else up. You can still go back to your neighborhood and give back. I always thought Saundra Sharp was great looking and classy like Dianhann Carroll.

I love these older films. I wish they would show more of them today. Thanks for sharing. :).

I am fine, Eric. I pray you and your family are doing well.
Morgan Freeman out here looking like Jimi Hendrix! 😂😂
Lizzie Beth Yes he does!
Right !!!

@Lance Lanny that's true.
You got that right. He sure do favor Jimmy Hendrix a lot.

Uzziah Malak Agree it's so many beautiful things about us❤
👍
And who are your people, I'm listening? There is no we, you don't know that.
@@therappermalcolm6956 like like i said MY PEOPLE!!!!! And if you have to ask who that is than that means you aint one of them ! Anything else you need to know? Scrub
That is Hattie Winston singing. She is 74 years old now. Saundra Sharp is 76 now.
I like the days when black women didn't wear all that goop on their faces - just natural beautiful.
Yeah these ladies were n their natural beauty 💟!
Oh Hattie Winston- (actor in Jackie Brown) Saundra Sharpe (actor in Good Times : mother to Gary Coleman and Anna Marie Horsford (actor in Amen, Wayans Bros and Friday movies) ALL were accomplished ladies were underrated as it was sad that good acting roles weren't available for tha sistas! So many blacks cud neva get mainstream looks. 2 much DAMN TALENT not enuff appreciation 😉
Cool, thanks. They till look awesome. Also Anna Maria Horsford and a few other well-known actors haven’t aged at all to their chronological age.
So everyone in this movie was in their midcto late 30s? Wow! I dont really know these woman but I've seen the darker one in movies. Morgan was the male I knew.
This was such a beautiful film. Man, I wish that I would of watched it sooner. No spoilers here but many valuable lessons. 🌹
Why do the characters with a darker complexion always have to be the mean or negative people in films while the rich and successful characters often have a lighter skin tone? I wanna see a film where dark skin people play both roles. Any recommendations? Apart from that detail, this film had a great message and very good writing.
Thats so true
Real Life.
Because white people write it in the screenplay!
The dark skin denotes danger, something to
not trust and beware of.
The hidden techniques Hollywood uses to continue to color code our presumed intentions in a movie we didn't write! I would place pentagrams on white people's foreheads for immediate identification!
Wow! I can't believe that this was the first time that I've seen my cousin working in his craft. This movie really shed light on issues that we face in our communities, positive communication strategies and bridging the gap between blacks of different economic and social levels.
The Machine who is your cousin
Yes which one is your cuz
Which Actor Is Ur Cuzn
Great question could be same old story to be close white the lies that have been embedded in us
@@LisaLisa-os8ws not sure what you’re trying to say but I assume it’s white-blaming…shocker
Omg I just love the chocolate sister hair styles and how she put multicolored scarfs around her ponytail omg I am definitely going to do this to my hair she gave me an idea
I wish I could LIKE this film 10 times!!!
BRAVOS all around to the entire ensemble. I don’t care what anyone says the 70s are my favorite era of Black cinema. With all the remakes/reboots being made how did this one slip through the cracks?
@reelblack Thank you for introducing me to Saundra Sharp and I have a whole new respect for Morgan Freeman. What a great film and important message. I hope Black cinema finds it way back to storytelling like this again.🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Totally agree with you. I want a platform where I can see all these movies.
I really enjoyed this, being from NYC and fashion student i can relate completely
It kind of reminds me of the movie Mahogany with Diana Ross and Billy Dee
Choose love.
@@bo24.u.98 loved that movie (Mahogany)- it confirmed my desire to become the fashion designer I did
The scene when they were at the arcade ( Coney Island) put a smile on my face. I couldn’t stop smiling 😁 This picture was before my time, but I see myself in this picture 💕
My father used to take my brother and me to Coney Island every Sunday afternoon when we lived in Brooklyn. It was awesome!
I never seen this before. Thanks for posting .
This was a suggested movie from an old uncle of mine after I tried to help my classmates and got ridiculed for helping. Not all of them but a few weren’t very nice to me behind me trying to help. I received comments like “who asked for your help?” I’m trying not to b afraid to help others again. Can’t wait to watch this and c what he’s talking about lol 😆
This was a great movie, you can tell low budget movies, yet we know that take away from good stories. This brought back memories. The struggles our people go thru even when you do make it. I thought of mahongey with D. Ross, but that was love story. This was real good writers, good actors, great reality story. How far we gotten from to where we are today. Family movie. Thumbs up baby, Thumbs up,
Intelligent movie with philosophical questions about the past, identity, solidarity, separation, and social class.
This is an Excellent movie, a must see.👍👍👍👍
This is an amazing movie, thanks Danny and many old and young entertainer's,Such Grace, style and elegance Out black Community has.... let's continue to grow together in a positive way.....🙏🏿❤️
Saundra Sharp was outstanding and she was so gorgeous and still is , I had to check ✅
YEP HER AND HATTIE WINSTON AKA IVY
Another well-written, brilliantly performed movie by an all-black cast. This movie shows Black people being authentically Black and as multidimensional as all other humans. It was great seeing Hattie Winston doing her thing!
I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, and I liked the ending. She ultimately made the right decision.
That Ain't No Secert!
Yes she did. A great message for black women in similar situations.
She did. Wasn't easy, but no point helping people out of water if you are drowning yourself.
Old Morgan Freeman was young Morgan Freeman, still great acting,and looking good,love this movie,the women were natural beauty's.
I missed Harlem where I grew up,the way it has to be.memoeires,sweet memories, of days gone by, I feel left out to cry. thank you for this movie.
When movies had purpose.
What purpose is that? To further teach that successful blacks don't understand unsuccessful ones. Or that being a token is acceptable and that they help from a distance. This movie was alright until the end. 👎
I Believe she's Going to Run for the Office that she wanted Danny to Run for!!! Thus, Helping the Community in Large!!!
@@therappermalcolm6956
😶
Fuzzy on how a lady so supposedly heroic can't be faithful to anybody really.
She made the right choice. Too many Black women struggle trying to build a man. She was successful and dating a successful man. They could build generational wealth and give back to the community in their own way.
Wow! A beautiful and powerful black film with excellent talent and story line. I was too young to remember the movie back then. I wanted to move to NYC to become a fashion designer, but now into film production (I do a little fashion design now as well). Thank you for posting this movie.
A great period movie with a timeless message.
Awesome movie and great story line of the black experience. Thanks for sharing.
I don't like how he blame her for Sweet Talks death. He was already dead, just no buried.
Thank you so much for posting and Sharing this classic!
Thank you so much for posting these movies & documentaries! I love this channel!

THIS REMINDS ME OF 'MAHOGANY' WITH DIANA ROSS & BILLY DEE WILLIAMS... SAME THEME. LIKED THE LAST LINE... GOTTA MAKE CHANGES FROM WHERE I AM, NOT FROM WHERE I HAVE BEEN...... TRUE WORDS.....
I told my friend the same thing. Especially when they are walking through the neighborhood and the Coney Island sequence.
Beautiful movie, sad to see drugs still a problem in the black community.
brwntra 1 White community's as well
@@sweetnessisrael235 The focus is on our community!!!
Amina Israel You may took my comment wrong sister. I know our community is our focus, and many point there fingers toward our way. When clearly so called whites have problems themselves in there own communities.
@@sweetnessisrael235 my apologies sis didn't mean any harm. I have so much compassion for my people I just wish all of us felt that way.
No offense to anyone on this thread, but I, too, am concerned as well about the condition of black communities. How we treat one another moreso. White communities DO have their problems but my concern is for black communities and where we are headed.
So that whole time he was standing still talking on the rooftop they didn’t put that thing over where he was to catch him🤔
Right 😁

Morgan Freeman was 55 when he was born! I love him. 😁
😆😆

Right Harlem in the 70's and 80's was nice before the Crack Era destroyed everything
@@chelsealyons6496 I wouldn't say it was nice. Heroin destroyed Harlem in the 60's and 70's and it never got the chance to recover before crack came through like a hurricane in the 80's
A wonderful classic. There was some incredible films that came out in the '70s an '80s. Thanks to your UA-cam channel we are seeing these.
Hattie Winston has a beautiful voice I was totally unaware she is a singer. I remember the episode of "Good Times" with Saundra Sharp playing Gary Coleman's mother. Anne-Marie Hosford played Dee on the "Wayans Brothers." Morgan Freeman playing a junkie, not a role you see often from him.
Do apictorial book of all blacks in films and tv donald bogle did one years ago
I actually found this movie on TikTok lol, & I’m glad I watched it❤
When i saw this with Hattie Winston and Morgan Freeman i thought of "Electric Company"😁😁😁😁😘
You're right! they both were on that show.
Whats electric co.?
Which one is Hattie?
Yumashita Murray I did too I use to love Electric Company
Lol!!! "Hey you guys!!!!"
Me too
Yes, Reelback Thanks an excellent movie done with realism and dignity. Keep finding these gems. Janice Harley
"I know what I have to do now. And it has to happen from where I am, not where I've been." Wow... great line.
This script is something that speaks truth about blacks & how we relate to each other when we make the choices for our lives
Miss Spencer,
Its interesting comparing the movie content of yesterday and today. Like night and day. I done see and bedroom scenes in most of them hallelujah!!!
This was worth the watch 👌💯
Excellent, I greatly enjoyed this movie and the ending had me in tears.
Great movie about being true to oneself in any circumstance.
This is an accurate representation of us, to this day! I love Us!
#OurPeople
I'm loving all these throwback movies 👍👏
I love watching old movies ❤. Thank you for sharing this.
I really enjoyed this movie. I like the ending / her understanding of how to help. not where she came from but where she is at now. which is part of accepting someone where they currently are.

YO! I’ve been looking for this movie for years! I remember watching it, as a kid, one late night back in the 90s. All I remember was Morgan freeman falling from the roof and the “making it to the top” song. It’s been over 20 years man smh, thanks for posting it I really like this movie.
I've been looking for this movie for years too.... Showtime used to play it in the 90's....Good movie....
@Reelblack One *YOU'VE DONE IT AGAIN ‼️ THANK YOU*
Oh how I enjoyed this oldie but goodie ... comfort food!
How are you doing today my name is Eric Moore
Great movie! Straight, sad facts. How painful it is to see certain things shown this clearly; but it´s good. It´s so easy to turn our back on those who remain in poverty, illness or violent areas, from which we achieve to "escape". I think that those who know the pain themselves are the ones who can do some things that others can´t do; they must not, but they may, and it is something that fills one´s life. / Strength, goodness, knowledge, patience, persevearance, hope, ... so much needs to be done; so much can be done, ... and it is done, if we just pay the price to stay long enough as to get it done, with sweat, tears, faith, laughter, song and celebration! Great songs! Many blessings!
