Boyz N the Hood (1991)

Brief Nudity

Review

Black-on-black violence, serial sex, drugs as financial freedom and crippling addiction, babies having babies, and kids killing kids form the strands of cinematically woven real life that earned director John Singleton a reputation as a hard-hitting, gripping teller of true-life tragedy in Boyz N the Hood (1991). Singleton’s portrayal of gang-banging youths on the cusp of prison, death, or adulthood prowling the hot, angry streets of South Central Los Angeles is unblinking, sympathetic, and cautiously sentimental. Circumstances and character combine to spring a trap that only the most nimble and clear-sighted natives can hope to escape without leaving a limb behind.
