VIVA RIVA is worth catching -- old-school gangster movie set in Kinshasa . . . Congolese and Angolan thieves and mobsters instead of Dagos and Micks . . . excellent cast of African actors, lots of twists in the story. Bill mentioned A RAGE IN HARLEM and COTTON COMES TO HARLEM recently: this is a worthy modern bookend.

Not only haven't I seen any of them, I can go you one better...I've never heard of them.
And stay off my lawn!
