"It's an individual and straightforward sport: either you can lift the weight or you can't." Haworth uses her speed (she can run the 40-yd. dash in an NFL-like 5 sec.) and her power (she can jump an NBA-like 34 in.) to routinely, and repeatedly, lift a groaning bar with a couple hundred pounds.

...original "Shaft" had the audacity to celebrate black love on the screen in its full sweaty, sensual glory. Shaft was a stud who always left a lady dreamily satisfied even if he had to dash out and fight when she just wanted to be held. And even - horrors! - white women wanted, and got, a piece of that action. His nephew, by contrast, despite a few lines of conversational innuendo, is remarkably sex-starved...
