A Rage in Harlem (film)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Rage in Harlem is a 1991 film starring Forest Whitaker, Robin Givens and Gregory Hines based on Chester Himes' novel of the same name. The bare bones of the plot is used to create a screenplay with a somewhat different emphasis than the novel. For example, in the film, the character of Goldy is the hero-protagonist, whereas in the novel, Goldy is a dope-addicted female impersonator who ends up with his throat cut and his body concealed in a hearse.
