June '00 : The Corner

This six-part miniseries is set on a thug-life corner in Baltimore, MD. From the opening episodes of Gary’s Blues, it looks like HBO may have another winner. Although we are a little disturbed by the images being offered by the subject matter, these issues are real, undeniably a part of our families and a serious health concern for this nation. We would really like to hear what you think about this programming choice by HBO. Send your thoughts to mailto:info@blackfilm.com with SOUND OFF in the subject category.

The series stars T.K. Carter, Khandi Alexander and Sean Nelson. It is directed by renowned actor Charles S. Dutton.
