John Berry’s CLAUDINE
(PG, 1974, 92 min)
With a sunny soul soundtrack composed by Curtis Mayfield and performed by Gladys Knight & the Pips, “Claudine” is a romantic comedy that chronicles both Black working-class struggle and Black joy, a bittersweet, bighearted celebration of family and community. Diahann Carroll is radiant in an unforgettable, Oscar-nominated performance as Claudine, a strong-willed single mother, raising six kids in Harlem, whose budding relationship with a gregarious garbage collector (an equally fantastic James Earl Jones) is stressed by the difficulty of getting by in an oppressive system. This romantic comedy deftly balances warm humor with a serious look at the myriad issues that shape its characters’ realities.
