Fun fact: The guys at the entrance that were hassling the ladies are actual Cabrini Green gang members, they made a deal to use real gang members in the movie in exchange for their permission to film there.
@@Kentelligent24 Wow, thanks for confirming it and giving me the name of the gang. I've read what I posted from a few sources but have never heard it from someone who was actually living there. It certainly looks like a very rough place to have lived in, not like they portrayed it on Good Times.
