23 July 2017: "Cooley High" was one of the greatest films in the seventies. The whole cast of actors/actresses were great and Glynn Turman {Preach} should have won an academy award for his role and the film should have been nominated.
I seen an interview with the guy that played Stone & he said Lawrence Hilton Jacobs called cut because they were really beating him up because they were real stick up men in Chicago before the movie
+Doug Ayers ... by the way, I was born in Chicago, but our family moved to L.A., CA in 1955... we were on a visit back in Chicago from August of 1963 to June of 1964... The only thing that happened during that 9 month period was "The March on Washington with MLK" "The Assassination of JFK" "Muhammad Ali aka Cassius Clay defeated Sonny Liston for the Heavyweight Crown" "The Beatle Invasion on The Ed Sullivan Show" "Sidney Poitier became the 1st Black Best Actor Oscar Winner" and on a personal note, my paternal grandmother "Sadie Mae Webb" passed away! ... Wow! What a 9 Months!
IM A YOUNGIN IM A 90’s BABY ON HERE I JUST SEEN COOLEY HIGH A FEW MONTHS AGO DI YALL THINK WE NEED A COOLEY HIGH PT2 OR IS IT GOOD THE WAY IT IS BUT ION THINK ITS GO LOOK THE SAME WE AINT GOT NONE OF THE PROJECTS WE HAD WHERE THEY WAS FILMING WHAT YALL THINK????
Charley Young... The More Than 300 People Who Were There Enjoyed The Night Immensely, Including Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs & Glynn Turman! They Were Quite Honored & Appreciative and That's What Mattered To Me!
That was a good movie it reminded me of my brother and his friends back in the 60's
I was 13 years old when I saw that movie I loved it❤️
Great movie! My dad was driving the “second bus” in the bus scene
Great movie. Brought back a time of high school parties and teenagers
As far as I'm Concerned everybody should've won the Oscar for this MASTERPIECE!!!!
A very good movie! I will always watch it. My oldest Sister played Brenda in the movie the light skinned Girl. she played that part well.
Yes she did Miles. We tried to get the entire cast to come to the event.
Check out the other clips in the Cooley High playlist here.
The Best Movie!! Thanks for doing what you do. :-)
You serious?
The girl who played "Brenda" in Cooley High, is your sister?
Yes her name is Cynthia, she played that very well.
I went and spent ten days with her in August. She is doing good.
That is one CLASSIC film.....
Special movie... Deserves more respect..

Me and Glyn spoke of this, you are correct N.K.D
That movie was classic
Unbelievable that Pooter was only 14 when they filmed Cooley High
Pooter would u get the hell off the break front my mama said not to lean on the breakfront cause she ain’t paying for it yet 😂😂😂
At any house party must move most furniture into the bedrooms.
That what i would do
I must've seen that movie 5 or 6 times when it came out
it would be nice if UA-cam put the full story unsung.
Great Job as always, Tracy Walker!
i love this movie
I love that movie 🎥🎥🎥
I love that movie 😊

Hmm. Lawrence Hilton Jacobs was friends with the guys who beat him up at the end of Cooley High.

Great film! I thought Ms. Davis was stunning! I hope she's well. My name is Yahya Shakur and I'm a screenwriter.
yahyashakur... Looking forward to meeting you in person at the 50th Anniversary in less than 4 years.... June of 2025
Whatever happened to the actor who portrayed Damon in the film I thought he was fantastic and I despised his character so much.
On fb i heard the actor who played damon died in 1992 from pancreatic cancer.
@Dose LoverStar wow i never knew he was still alive back in 2009. Did he still look the same as he did in cooley high?
The movie was awesome but this event well it's sort of tired.
