CROSS AND THE SWITCHBLADE, THE 1969
U.S. film. JD, teen, blaxploitation and religous film with terrific funk score. Pat Boone stars as Minister David Wilkerson in this true story about a man bringing religion to a NYC ghetto. Great teen gang rumbles and hard 1969 NYC street scenes. You can almost smell the urine from the filming locations! Awesome hoodlum dialog and black rap! Junkie whores, pot and psychedelic gang hangouts. Gangs include Egyptian Kings, Mau Maus, and the Bishops. Don't miss the insane "Addict's Psalm" (Pat Boone speaking passages from the scriptures over a huge funk breakbeat) or "Rumble", a great chase-style funk instrumental. Pat Boone, Erik Estrada, Jackelyn Giroux, Jo-Ann Robinson, Dino DeFilippi, Don Blakely, Gil Frazier, Don Lamond. The Cross and the Switchblade! Bonus Selection: “The Terrible Truth.”
