Richard Pryor, Harvey Keitel and Yaphet Kotto star in the powerful, critically acclaimed drama, Blue Collar. Three auto assembly line workers, fed up with union brass and tired of scraping by, hatch a plan to rob a safe at union headquarters. Disappointed with their measly bounty, they realize they've made off with something much more valuable than cash. Their unexpected swipe suddenly envelopes the three autoworkers in a desperate fight against corruption and organized crime.

評価とレビュー

This is a gem. I could provide a digesis but I won't. Suffice to say, if you like movies from the 1970s, want to see Richard Pryor actually ACT instead of do comedy, and see a great performance from Yaphet Kotto, this is a social commentary well worth bucket-listing. It really is handled well. It even reminds me of Alan Pakula, who made Klute, All the Presidents Men, and The Parrallax View. In a way, it's in that vein. It starts out seemingly humorous but debouches into a chilling commentary on western society.
