Awesome part of the original shaft movie. Moses and richard negotiating eh, pure fkn class. This is one of those gold plated original movies. Pure 70's vibe,
Shaft: Got any idea who grabbed her? Bumpy: Lot of cats hate my guts. Shaft: Sweet...lovin' dude like you? Sweet talkin' a man's old lady while you're beatin' her old man out of his paycheck in the backroom of a horse parlor...Feeding his kid shit to shoot in his arm...Who could hate you, Bumpy?
Great scene between Gunn and Roundtree ,Both legends in this 53 years on ,R I P to both along with Isaac Hayes who did the music for this ,Thanks also to the late Gordon Parks who directed this 1971 Iconic Classic .
I haven't seen this movie in years but I'm looking for the scene where shaft tails how much money is going to cost and bumpy is like damn! Shaft says I thought you said money don't matter. And bumpy says money always matter
No i love when he throws the money on the table then the soft music comes on an he pulls out his hankie to wipe his tears an says " when will i hear from you" lol classic
In the 80s all the Shaft movies and the 7 tv episodes would play on Saturday afternoons. Lots of bleeping. I wasn’t even in high school yet but damn I wanted to know what Shaft was saying. I still love these movies. They seem more honest than today’s offerings.
@@dwightlove3704 That's right. They went with Roundtree because they thought that his appearance was more unequivocally Black. This was also why U"Neal, unlike Roundtree, couldn't have a successful modelling career, although he was regarded as a handsome guy.
Sam is a great actor , but Richard is a much more of a natural . I'm working on my own movie . But in time I will hire Richard Roundtree . Why because he is a natural not to take anything from Sam. What has bothered me years . Is why they never called Richard Roundtree for a acting job .
