Bustin' Loose
Richard Pryor stars in this wild, wacky and warmhearted road movie
with
a difference, which later inspired a TV series.
When budget cuts close a children's home in Philadelphia, Vivian
Perry
(Emmy Award winner Cicely Tyson ) decides to help eight
special-education students by taking them to her aunt's farm
outside
Seattle. In desperate need of a driver/mechanic for the bus,
she teams
up with Joe Braxton (Pryor), an equally desperate ex-con who
hates women
and children.
Fueled by Roberta Flack's songs, the action is fast and funny
as this
delightfully mismatched group battles the bus, the law, the
Ku Klux Klan
and even each other on their way west. But it all ends happily
for the
kids, the con and the straitlaced lady.

Willie Dynamite
Roscoe Orman is Willie Dynamite, the flashy and arrogant street
pimp who
ruthlessly tries to apply capitalist principles to his own prostitution
ring. But Willie's grand plans are challenged by competing pimps
and
corrupt cops who work together to shut him down. As Willie's world
begins to crumble, Cora, a determined woman from his past, returns
to
try and rescue his girls from a future on the streets. Now with
pressure
mounting and time running out, Cora forces Willie to look at his
life
and decide whether he wants to go out in a blaze of glory or try
and
turn his life around.

Trick Baby
Trick Baby is the gritty story of the relationship between two
Philly
con men, Johnny 'Folks' O'Brien, a white man, and 'Blue' Howard,
a black
man. From an early age, Blue raised Folks as his own son and treated
him
as if he was black. However, Blue passed on more than his heritage
when
he taught him the ways of the street and the art of the con. Folks
was a
natural, and in no time they were using their skill and their
color to
play on people's prejudices and fears.
Then, on one hellish day, things begin to unravel when they
get in over
their heads with a crooked cop and some shady investors. Now
the heat is
on, friends are scarce and they must rely on each other.
But when the chips are down, can people of different races
really trust
each other? In the next 24 hours, Blue and Folks will learn
the
disturbing truth about themselves and the world they prey on.

THAT MAN BOLT
When you need a real man of steel, martial arts expert Jefferson
Bolt is
the high-priced pick for the job. His latest client, a mysterious
British man with a cool million in cash, has an offer Bolt can't
refuse:
transport his money from Hong Kong to Mexico City or be sent to
prison
on phony charges. But halfway to his destination, Bolt discovers
that
the money is funny, and he's been set up to take the fall.
With a price on his head and nowhere to turn, Bolt sets out
to destroy
the crime syndicate that dared to take him on. From high-stakes
danger
in glitzy Las Vegas to high-speed chases through gritty Los
Angeles,
Bolt strikes back again and again with an explosive battle culminating
in a fiery finish.
