@StopSocialismUSA Yeah, for some reason, in this version, when Lena gives Walter the inheritance money, it's at a bar. I wonder why they put it in a public place. In the 80's version, it happens in the house like in the book. And for some reason, they still cut out the scene with Walter asking Travis what he wants to be when he grows up and that he'd give him everything.
Thx so much ilovesidneypoitier!!! My aunt adores Sidney Poitier she's always wanted to marry him. Mama looks so disgusted with Walter Lee at the bar no wonder he avoided looking at her. I wouldn't be able to look my mother in the eye if she looked at me like that either.
she is so strong. I think she did the right thing buying the house. Liquor and money are like the only things important to walter. He doesn't need to open a LIQUOR STORE!
Also, don't you think Ruth has been a bit racist towards "them wiiite people?" calling them "cra***rs"??
Walter Lee had some growing up to do and it seems to be a theme in todays society... race ethnicity and sexual orientation are handicaps still and people still judge based on those things...
I heard that she said im going out to get my boy...got get him mamma go get him!...
I felt so bad when she went to the bar i wanted to cry for it was just so bad, she should have back handed him when he offered her a drink...poor momma so hurt.
It might not have been the right move, but Walter Lee needs something. He needs motivation; to step up, and be responsible. Yeah, he acts like a fool, but wise folks are reformed fools. Mama only did what she thought was right for him,
She allowed her son to pursue his happiness in life. She had to let him do it for himself. Without inabling him. How will he have learned his valuable lesson unless he had to fail. That was the blessing....
i'm not sure it's so much contempt she feels for him as profound dissapointment. it's always crushing to learn that someone isn't who you've thought them to be.

@flippinllama they must have changed the name because "kitty kat club" would sound more like a strip club than bar in the days they made this movie.
