Regarding Wendell Scott
Added 3/27/2002

This is a movie that is more than a comedy, it is a movie based on the life of Wendell Scott. It gives you some idea of how difficult it was for minorities to enter a predominately white sport. Everyone should see it for its entertainment value, and because it reflects on a part of American history.

Here's some trivia for you!

Did you know that Wendell Scott and Muhammad Ali have family ties?

My Grandfather, James Waddell (now deceased) from Louisville, Kentucky, is Wendell Scott's cousin. James Waddell married my Grandmother Ms.Eva Clay. Mrs.Eva(Clay)Waddell is the sister of Muhammad Ali's mother.

In other words, Wendell Scott's cousin married Muhammad Ali's aunt. That's much easier to understand isn't it?

Now you have some trivia that practically no one was aware of!

Rita Waddell
Louisville,KY

I love this DVD. I am from Danville VA, where this movie was made and from where the characters from this movie lived. I have seen some of these place in my home town coming up as boy and had seen "Wendell Scott" around town and in parades. This is a great reproduction and of good quality from the original. Thanks for the Nostalgia.

Richard Pryor's movie, Moving has finally arrived in a digitital format!
Added 4/16/2009

This is one of my most anticipated DVD releases! I have been a big fan of Richard Pryor for years and Moving may be his best film yet. Why this movie took so long to make it to DVD is beyond me because it is hilarious! My only objection to this movie is the fact that it should have been released on Blu-ray as well.

Comedy at it's best
Added 2/26/2009

Richard Pryor was and always will be the funniest comedian I've had the pleasure of watching. Excellent movies and ones that I've watched repeatedly. His brilliance lives on in his work.
