A Girl, Some Guys, and a Movie: Shaft (1971)

Join Janet, Joshua (6Nations31Kings), and Bruce as they discuss the film that literally saved MGM from bankruptcy in 1971, and inspired a series of films, a television series, and helped invigorate the box office with a demographic that was previously untouched.

While not the first 'blacksploitation' film, it definitely catapulted the star, Richard Roundtree to new heights as an actor, and heavily leaned into the cultural shift of the 1970's.
