Imitation of Life  is a sad movie. That's a movie they should remake.

The 90s was the best era for black film. Seeing this list reminds me of how fortunate I am to have grown up in that era. These kids today will never know! :'(

What happened to black cinema?! How is it that Friday came out in the same year as Bad Boys and Waiting to Exhale. Three completely different movies, all classic.  Now, we are lucky to get a Tyler Perry movie and another civil rights film in the same year.

I've never seen the original. But the 1950's version is great!
That's the version I seen. I didn't know it was a remake.
