      I agree 💯 with you. Ms. Diahann Carroll is a very classy lady. I adore her and a fan of her great body of work. I also can relate her on the Oprah Show she stated that she and Sidney Pointier dated. She said how beautiful he was and reference him as a black panther. She was so entrall for him back then. The relatioship ended because according to her he slapped her.

    Greetings from TheChi. So glad this came up on my feed. The date is October 05, 2019. On Friday, October 04, 2019, I heard that we lost a true legend of TV, Film and Stage #DiahannCarroll. She was a lady of class, grace and talent. A true legend. rip🌹Thank you, Chicago's own west side native and story teller #RobertTownsend for making a classic movie #TheFiveHeartbeats🎭📼💿📺📽️🎥 That scene with Eddie King, sliding onto the stage will always be my favorite. All the best.

    I remember Ms. Freda Payne song in the early 1970's song called Bring the Boys Home. It's a song about bringing back the soldiers in the Vietnam War.

    Hi! Just a few sentences from my interview with the members of the Dells in the late 1990s:
    Chuck Barksdale: "This was not supposed to be a story about the Dells from the beginning. This was supposed to be a story about a stand-up vocal group, black, that was gonna be a comedy. Robert Townsend, the director, was brought to our dressing room by a young lady by the name of Kitty Sears, because he wanted to come and ask us, if it would be okay for him to use "Stay In My Corner" and "Oh What A Nite" in this up-coming comedy. When he mentioned 'comedy', Marvin Junior chimed in and said 'hey, wait a minute, ain't nothing funny about being a black stand-up vocal group. It's a major struggle, and the struggle continues today.' Robert said 'well, tell me more', and asked 'wait a minute, are you guys on tour now?' We said 'yes, we're on tour for the next six weeks.' He said 'do you mind, if I travel around with you. I like what I'm hearing so far.'" He travelled with us for the next six weeks. He watched our comradery, he heard us argue, saw us work on stage, riding on a bus, have dinner together. He took that and literally changed the script."
    Marvin Junior: "That was 85 % our story. When it was in the theatres, it was not that successful, but then they put it on video and on television, then it became very popular. The company didn't know how to handle that. They were so busy with the black movies with the killing and drugs and the whole bit - and here came a movie about entertainers, and they didn't quite know how to handle that."
    Michael McGill: "Don't ever let any other group or anybody else tell you that the movie was about them. Robert Townsend travelled with the Dells. Marvin told Robert things, and he was taking it all in --- so the story came from the Dells.
