Summary: 3 Stars
A movie by Melvin Van Peebles, Mario's father and brave director. In 1970 he shot this movie, with a sit-com conception (little Erin Moran is one of the protagonist's kids, before becoming Ricky Cunningham-Ron Howard's sister in Happy Days !), but with a bitter development and ending. Are we sure that the topic is too old and past for a remake ? Hollywood, in lack of ideas, should discover this forgotten small jewel (not a masterpiece anyway)Movie Review: STILL WATERS RUN DEEP ? NO. WATERMELON MAN RUNS DEEP!
Summary: 3 Stars
Watermelon Man...was a very courageous and creative effort to depict caucasian racists attitudes prevalent 25-30yrs ago in a humorist and insightful context that encourages a viewer to step out of a stagnate and prejustice cultural box to take a risk to "take a walk in another's shoes". While very funny in isolated scenes and contexts, one cannot escape the fact that this film is thought provoking.Movie Review: Watermelon Man
Summary: 3 Stars
Fairly decent movie-a humorous satire. Godfrey Cambridge did a good job in the movie but not as good as he does in Cotton Comes to Harlem. Pretty good for its time. Estelle Parsons was also very good in the movie.
