Billy Dee



HIT!-1973-Billy Dee Williams is a federal agent Nick Allen out to avenge the death of his daughter by some French drug dealers. He assembles a team that includes Richard Pryor and Sid Melton and convinces most of them to join him by playing on their own lust for vengeance for crimes committed against them. There are also two assassins who seemed based on the pair in DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER. It's not very good with too much talk and ridiculous drawn out scenes despite direction by Sidney J. Furie (DR. BLOOD'S COFFIN) who the year before had made the critically acclaimed LADY SINGS THE BLUES.

Thanks for reading!
