series Black 90s: A Turning Point in American Cinema
Directed by Albert and Allen Hughes | 1993
With Tyrin Turner, Jada Pinkett Smith, Larenz Tate
“Went into the store just to get a beer, came out an accessory to murder and armed robbery.” The first feature from wunderkind directors the Hughes brothers is a tour-de-force of visceral, live-wire filmmaking which elevates the tale of a young LA hustler trying to escape the cycle of crime and violence to operatic heights. Charged with a furious fatalism, Menace II Society stands as one of the most shattering cinematic experiences of the 1990s.
