[edit] Film

While this article does a good job on discussing Brown's athletic career, his film career is barely mentioned. MK2 04:36, 3 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit]  ?

I never even knew he had a film career

til I read this. C2 aaron 14:23, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

Didn't he also spend some time in jail?

Next to no data on his tumultuous personal life

[edit] Multiple arrests

To answer an earlier inquiry regarding Brown's incarceration: he has been arrested numerous times, for charges including domestic violence, battery, assault and even rape. In most cases he was either acquitted or the charges were dropped, though I do believe he did some jail time for vandalizing his wife's vehicle. He has a notoriously quick fuse.

Brown's numerous brushes with the law have somewhat tarnished his legacy here in NE Ohio.

• Update: here are a couple of links; hope these help.

Jim Brown was hard to bring down (Biographical sketch, also discusses Brown's apparent "dark side.")
