| Shafts Big Score- $ 3.49 You cant say the mob wasnt warned about John Shaft. "Hes a bad dude," a numbers racketeer cautions them. Now Shaft himself will deliver that message in a way New York Citys wise guys understand. Richard Roundtree reunites with the director (Gordon Parks) and the screenwriter (Ernest Tidyman) of 1971s trendsetting Shaft for Shafts Big Score!, the second of Roundtrees three movie portrayals of the street-smart, leather-jacketed private investigator. This time, the blown-to-kingdom-come murder of a client plunges Shaft into a case that bounces him like a pinball between the 133rd Precinct and competing mobs. But the players are about to be played in this "rousing and entertaining thriller" (Newsweek). |
