Movie Issues: Cleopatra Jones

You can listen to this episode on our Movie Issues channel at Anchor.fm!

We here at Movie Issues love a good Blaxploitation action film, and this week we watched one of the best ones in showing us a strong female kicking ass and taking names: Cleopatra Jones from 1973.  We follow Cleopatra Jones, who is a United States Special Agent assigned to crack down on drug-trafficking in the U.S. and abroad. After she burns a Turkish poppy field, the notorious drug-lord Mommy is furious at the loss of her supply and vows to destroy Cleopatra Jones. Then the shit gets real, and it’s an all-out-war between these two ladies. Please download and hear us talk about the good and the bad of the Blaxploitation genre and give some love to Cleopatra Jones!
