...cast is laden with all sorts of luminaries (Harry Belafonte, Calvin Lockhart, Richard Pryor, Rosalind Cash) and among them there are a couple of nice but wide comic turns: Roscoe Lee Browne as an enjoyably fulsome and hypocritical politician, and Flip Wilson as a preacher who exhorts his congregation, "We need more romance and less hot pants." Cosby is affably anxious, but Poitier's idea of comic acting is to bulge his eyes out, as if doing a Mantan Moreland impression. It is said of some movies that they look like photographed stage plays. Uptown Saturday Night looks like...
...some of the names and chances of the 13 likely candidates. Early favorite, the Most Rev. Donald Coggan, Archbishop of York, is now tied at 3 to 1 with Bishop John Howe.

But the movie is also full of humor, melancholy and some dazzling film making. This is Eastman's first film as a director, but he demonstrates considerable sophistication, a feeling for textures and odd nuances. One long scene in a gym-empty at first, then slowly filling with fighters doing exercises...
...result, Lear's descent into madness after Goneril (Rosalind Cash) and Regan (Ellen Holly) turn him out of the very houses he gave them is distressingly smooth, almost melodramatic. Jones never touches the universal and timeless fears of generational revolt that are implicit in the play. Indeed, much of the time his work seems more elocutionary than emotional. He relies too heavily on wowing the audience with his rich, supple voice...
