Plot: Jonathan Fisher (Christopher Reeve) is a newspaper reporter who becomes a celebrity when he writes a fictitious exposé on prostitution. The story of the high-living pimp is too close a resemblance to real-life flesh pedlar Fast Black (Morgan Freeman), and Jonathan is jailed when he refuses to turn his papers over to the local district attorney. In jail for suspicion of murder, Black tries to silence the reporter who created the sensational fabrication. ~ Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide

Street Smart - A truly great performance by Morgan Freeman
Added 11/14/2007

Morgan Freeman was robbed of an Oscar for his performance in this low budget and under appreciated film. Overall the movie was just okay, but it is well worth the price to see Morgan Freeman stealing every scene that he's in while scaring you to death with his portrayal of his character.

A tour de force of acting by Morgan Freeman.
Added 11/11/2007

Morgan Freeman definitely was worthy of an oscar for his acting in this film!!! The story was very interesting with excellent acting by everyone. It's a piece of American cinematic art in its' own right, within the category it is in. For those who want to nit-pick at it with proposterous fussy-ness, they should either mention films (they consider perfect), or, present the list of movies (they produced and directed) so we can see what perfection is. And, liking a certain type of movie doesn't add-up-to that the viewer endorses the behavior or lifestyle portrayed in the movie - as some may conclude. -- (I suggest reading 'C.O. DeReimer's' review of this movie)!

Morgan Freeman's favorite role
Added 3/28/2007

I purchase this movie because Morgan Freeman stated on "Oprah" that the role he played in this movie was his favorite role. I had never heard of the movie, but being a Morgan Freeman fan, I had to search it out. The movie was enjoyable, had a good storyline and is a must-see for Morgan Freeman fans and Christopher Reeve fans.
