Poster Art From art.comHit Man   1972     1 star    R, 90 min.
Genre: Drama
Director: George Armitage  
Cast: Bernie Casey, Pam Grier, Lisa Moore, Bhetty Waldron, Sam Laws, Candy All, Don Diamond, Ed Cambridge, Bob Harris, Roger E. Mosley, Rudy Challenger, Marilyn Joi, Christopher Joy, John Lupton, Diane Sommerfield

  This is a poor remake of the previous year's "Get Carter," though the acting from the all-Black cast isn't too bad. Tyrone Tackett (Bernie Casey) arrives in L.A. for the funeral of his brother and ends up tracking down those responsible for his death. Slow, with some authentic back-street L.A. atmosphere. Remade again under the original name in 2000.

The Man in the NetRuby 03/09/2007 
  I happened across this movie on Turner Classic Movie channel. It was a gem of a mystery. Alan Ladd is being framed for the murder of his wife. The children in this New England town ban together to hide him and help him find out who really murdered his wife. There were a couple parts played by child that were especially good. Two girls, Emily and Angel were very convincing without being obnoxious.
While the movie was made in 1959, it still stands up. What a jewel.
