Om denne film

Based on the syndicated newspaper comic strip of the same name, Pam Grier ("Foxy Brown") stars as intrepid photojournalist Friday Foster. No sooner has she been warned by her boss that her personal involvement in the stories she's shooting will not end happily, Friday witnesses the attempted assassination of a prominent African-American figure and the murder of a friend. Why is Friday a target on the hit list? What does she know? Teaming with private detective Colt Hawkins (Yaphet Kotto, "Live and Let Die"), the search for answers will lead them to a startling and action-packed finale. Directed by Arthur Marks ("Bucktown, U.S.A."), based on his story, "Friday Foster" features supporting performances by Godfrey Cambridge ("Cotton Comes To Harlem"), the legendary Eartha Kitt ("Anna Lucasta"), Carl Weathers ("Rocky"), Scatman Crothers ("Zapped!"), Ted Lange ("Record City") and Jim Backus ("It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.").
