You have a handle on obscure films, and you might be able to help in some form. Mostly, I'm in search of sci-fi related films that are related to black issues or characterization. I'd be grateful if you had some books or sites for reference as well. I have a majority of typically known blaxploitation and some other stuff that is easily attainable, again any help would be appreciated. thanx in advance.>> ________________________ -- Jeremy Butler www.ScreenSite.org www.TVCrit.com www.AllThingsAcoustic.org Professor - TCF Dept - U Alabama ---- For past messages, visit the Screen-L Archives: http://bama.ua.edu/archives/screen-l.html
