Über diesen Film

Ossie Davis makes his directorial debut a smashing success in the trend-setting action crime comedy Cotton Comes To Harlem. Coffin Ed (Raymond St. Jacques) and Grave Digger Jones (Godfrey Cambridge), two plainclothesmen on the Harlem detail, are assigned to investigate the goings-on of suspicious local preacher Deke O'Malley (Calvin Lockhart), whose "Back to Africa" political movement turns out to be a scam to milk the community of their hard-earned cash.

An old classic... Well written and well acted. One of the best of the many blaxploitation movies from the 70s.

One of the best of the black movies of the 70's
