A rich young white man buys a building in a Black neighbourhood.
Sinekatalog’s take
Hal Ashby's debut comedy has a rich white young man buying a Brooklyn tenement and being changed by its Black tenants. Beau Bridges and Lee Grant are good in a funny, awkward, sharp-edged social satire.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
