Make Your's a Happy Home

I've waited years for this movie to be released on video/DVD. Thank God my patience has finally been rewarded. Claudine is a sweet movie about family and a woman who's made mistakes but loves her children and is willing to make sacrifices to provide for them. Released during the age of blaxploitation, the film features real characters that are well rounded.
James Earl Jones is fanstatic as always despite his protests to the contrary in the commentary. Lawrence Hilton Jacobs does a fine job as well. Carroll is a revelation especially to those television and movie watchers who know her only from Dynasty, Julia or the Five Heartbeats. Hey movie studios, how about stepping outside the box for once and find this underutilized talent another leading, meaty role?
Another plus is the outstanding soundtrack. The team of Curtis Mayfield and Gladys Knight and the Pips was a winning one. I wish someone would re-issue the CD like they did a few years ago.
My only complaint...a small one...is I wish that there were more special features. A where on they now on the children in the movie would have been really nice.


Claudine - riveting drama packed with realism

Excellent movie sure to entertain all those who watch. Diahann Carroll, James Earl Jones and Lawrence Hilton Jacobs put in the performance of their lives. The sometimes funny, sometimes sad storyline is sure to capture the hearts of viewers. The soundtrack, performed by Gladys Knight further enhances the movie. I could watch it over ; over.
