Synopsis
Black Caesar (1973) is a blaxploitation crime drama you can watch online on iFILM. Director Larry Cohen follows Tommy Gibbs — raised in 1960s Harlem, carrying a hard childhood like a running tab — as he methodically dismantles New York's Italian mob and installs himself at the top.
Fred Williamson plays Tommy with deliberate, contained intelligence: a ledger of dirt on the right people makes him nearly untouchable, until every faction in the city decides they want that ledger back. Gloria Hendry plays his love interest; corrupt cop McKinney has been on Tommy's case since they were both younger and the streets were the only court that counted.
James Brown scored the entire picture, and the music drives harder than most of the script. For an exploitation film, it's unusually serious about what it costs to get where Tommy gets. Stream Black Caesar (1973) online on iFILM.
