Have You Seen: Boyz n the Hood (1991) In our series "Have You Seen?" we discuss a movie that some of us know well and others have just now seen for the first time. Our conversation focuses on the experience of someone watching the movie for the first time today and their reaction. This week we revisit Boyz n the Hood, a coming of age hood drama film by John Singleton atarring Laurence Fishburne, Cuba Gooding Jr and Angela Bassett, which follows Tre Styles, who is sent to live with his father Furious Styles in South Central Los Angeles, where he reunites with his childhood friends while surrounded by the neighborhood's booming gang culture. We talk about this movie brings its characters and the difficult circumstances they live in to life, why this movie was more engaging for us than most slice of life movies, ask why this movie is so highly regarded despite its thesis that the problems of Black communities are mostly self inflicted, and much more.
