Movie Reviews of Nothing But a ManMovie Review: A Great Film Summary: 5 Stars
I first saw "Nothing But a Man" on public TV about 35 years ago when I was in high school. I never forgot it. I was very happy to learn of its release on tape in the 1990s and now its availability on DVD. Terrific acting, and a tight script. Unlike so many Hollywood movies, you have to pay attention to the details in this one. It's in my personal Top 50 films of all time.
Movie Review: Nothing But a Man Summary: 5 Stars
A lean film of unusual grace and power, thanks to a perceptive script and solid characterizations. Both Dixon and jazz singer Lincoln give heartfelt portrayals as Duff and Josie, and look for the late, great Julius Harris playing Duff's drunk, delinquent father. "Nothing" is an inspiring work of cinema that helped fuel the Civil Rights era, and still speaks volumes today.
Movie Review: Recommended viewing by all!! Summary: 5 Stars
I remember seeing this film on PBS back in the mid 1980's, then, it made occasional appearances on late night cable TV. It was impressive then and still is today! It's the simple, yet powerful story of a man who refuses to live by the so-called "rules" of the time and stand up for himself, no matter what the cost. the title should be changed to "How To Be a Man"!!
Movie Review: Ivan Dixon and Abby Lincoln: a match made in Heaven Summary: 5 Stars
This was the best film that I have seen in some time. I highly recommend Nothing But a Man. Ivan Dixon is superb! Abby Lincoln was the perfect pairing with Ivan. The supporting actors were first rate. I enjoyed viewing this. It was money well spent.

Movie Review: Classic Summary: 5 Stars
Beautiful Film that captures the angst of all Black Men and their relationships even until today. With the root cause ever so obvious. Nothing has changed, its just more subtle these days.
