My Sweet Charlie (1970 TV Movie)
10/10
My Sweet Charlie TV movie -1970
2 January 2011
Like the All in the family sitcom,and similar sitcoms of the early 70's,this movie was created, to viciously attack the racial bigotry,prejudice,and ignorance,that we all have inside us in certain degrees.Duke and Freeman Jr.,were both excellent in their roles - yet if I were the director of this movie, it would have been more intense,and the end different,instead of the painfully shocking,disappointing conclusion we all know of.There should have been a spin off TV series after this movie,like THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT.Sally Struthers,would have made a great replacement for Duke - and Denzel for Freeman.People just don't carry plots to maturity.This movie,left us with the rather embarrassing social thought in relating to people of other races back then," What now? Since we now see from how offensive and primitive these characters related to each other in this movie!"
