Green Carnation Film Club Presents... SET IT OFF (1996)

Directed by F. Gray Gay of FRIDAY (1995) fame, SET IT OFF (1996) is an exhilarating heist film following four women who, disillusioned by racism and class struggle, decide to rob banks to get the cash they desperately need. Propelled by an exceptional cast including Jada Pinkett Smith, Vivica A. Fox and Kimberly Elise, it deserves recognition as a powerful entry into the 90s Hollywood action canon, one that packs a genuine emotional punch. It’s also much loved for its moment of queer representation through Queen Latifah’s scenery-chewing performance as Cleo.
