It's two different actors???? Okay from "Malcolm X"..the character that I'm speaking of was called "Baines" and the actor who played him was "Albert Hall". Shucks well smack me silly, I guess I stand corrected Hershe...but doggone it to me they look similar. My mistake.
I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |

Now, this the dude that was the mean judge on Ally McBeal | |

He also played Odell, Easy Rawlins' mild-mannered religious friend from Devil In The Blue Dress.
He & Joe Morton are masters when it comes to leaving lasting impressions, despite their constant short roles. [Edited 12/17/10 10:25am] | |

Ohhhh! Well, since I've never seen Hoodlum, it didn't compute. I remember "Prince's daddy" in 52 Pickup with Vanity. He was a crazy mofo in that one, too. | |

William Clarence THEE 3rd is Hollywood's best kept secret. To me, he's the heir to Roscoe Lee Browne's legacy. A character's actor to the highest order and has a hypnotic quality that suck you in without so much of a word whenever he's on the screen. A talent can be developed but that shit is a GIFT.
He stopped me on my tracks in 'Ritual' with Denise Nicholas. Boy, what a mess of a movie everybody acted their asses off though, esp him & Denise. | |

He also was the crooked cop, Swoop, on the take in my favorite made for tv movie of all time, The Sophisticated Gents. That movie had an all star black cast:
Rosalind Cash Paul Winfield Janet Dubois Raymond St. Jaques Alfree Woodard Dick Anthony Wiiliams Deniece Nicholas Ron O'Neal Melvin Van Peebles - Who adapted the book written by John L. Williams to TV
They need to get this movie on DVD pronto! [Edited 12/17/10 22:44pm] | |

I'm on pins & needles until it gets remastered to DVD. Loved it since I watched it in BET 5 years ago. | |

"Ohhhh I see you two are getting along wonderfully"!!!!
While the entire film is absolutely genius, I think my many of favorite lines come during the Sexual Chocolate bit.
Particularly - "Now you all remember him as Joe the Policeman from the What's Going Down episode of That's My Mama". Kills me.

You're right, he definitely commands the screen in any time he appears. Nobody plays cracky/crazy with such panache. Member Sugar Hill? Man, I LOVED him in Deep Cover. It seem him and Larry have an affinity for working together. [Edited 12/18/10 8:35am] | |
