After such films as Coffy and Foxy Brown, Pam Griers films seemed to not have the same impact. In Friday Foster, Pam Grier stars as a photographer for Glance magazine. This film includes such great black actors as Eartha Kitt, Thalmus Rusalula, Scatman Crothers, Godfrey Cambridge, Jim Backus, New Orleans own, Carl Weathers and Yaphet Kotto. The film had an interesting story line, but it just seemed to fall short in some areas. Pam does to as well of a job as any, her hair looks great, not all wild as if they didn't know what to do with it. Her exotic beauty is really emphasized in this film as well as her body. Pam Grier remains tops with me. I'm still hoping that they release Drum on DVD. Pam Grier made this film in NOLA, in which she plays a slave and love interest to boxer, Ken Norton and slave owner, Warren Oates. If you don't know who Pam Grier is or you would like to see some of her films. Check out Black Mama White Mama, Coffy, Foxy Brown, Disney's Something Wicked This Way Comes and Quentin Tarrentino's Jackie Brown. She can also be seen on the cable series, The L word. Thanks for stopping by; keep an open mind.
