[tkdfrank]

[newbutton7]

The partial story of Eric Monte the creator of Good Times , and a host of other African American sitcoms of the early 70s

[mamamayhave]

Dumb ass white people this movie is damn near 40 years old. Shut the fuck up and watch the damn movie. The black people wear belts. Thugs respect the teachers. Atheletes study for midterm test. You should be proud of black people.

[icef1sh]

Yea thats what all black neighbourhoods are like. no crime just cute children innocently breaking minor rules. LOL NO! in reality theyd be skipping school to do crack and the teacher wouldnt do anything because theyd be afraid of being stabbed

[nuknuknuk111]

@icef1sh u dont know wat the hell your talkin about

[DutchKalhoun]

They cut school just to go to the zoo? When I cut school, it was to smoke some herb or get some pussy or all of the above.

[mwhite36]

@DutchKalhoun They took care of that later in the film!

:D

[PutMeOnCameraXD]

ahhh this is my favorite movie of allllll time :) im only 14

[SLeepTillNoon]

the first time saw this movie was when i caught it on TV real late... I loved the music the most

[DPhysicalMusicInc]

"Aw mama, that sHO is cold and I thought we was tight" I LOVE THAT LINE!! Thats so 70's...

[hevyonez97]

@DPhysicalMusicInc i continue to use that line to this day, and it works like a charm!!! back in high school during the late 80's, forget about it!! lol

[cupid4040]

I love this movie, it's a shame though , how the maker of it died.

[AveolarD]

@cupid4040 people can't live forever. lol.

[cupid4040]

@AveolarD You think.

[AveolarD]

@cupid4040 duh, that's why he died. what are you stupid?

[mwhite36]

@cupid4040 If you mean Eric Monte (writer - wrote screenplay based on coming up in Chicago in '60s), to my knowlege he is still (as of July 11, 2011) alive.

[nevawrong]

@mrzMira

i seen BOYZ IN DA HOOD  : )

[olamite]

best flick ever, I see Glynn Turman (Preach) and Steven Williams (Jimmy Lee) all the time...two of the coolest cats you could ever meet !!!

[tutti1331]

this movie is a classic.......wasnt  that brenda on the back of the bus in the beginning of the movie...........i believe some of the cast of cooley high is in the movie called monkey hustle.....

[mwhite36]

@tutti1331 No, actually that is an extra that looks like her.

I thought that myself, though. They do look similar.

[RedNoir]

@mrzMira I just wanna see the breakfront scene! Im 19 and i love this movie!!!! NOT MY MOMMA S BREAKFRONT!!! LMAO I FALL OUT AT THAT SCENE!!!

[StevesPlace59]

I saw this movie back in high school. I've always considered this to be the Black version of American Graffiti. A really great movie. I still like it today. This movie was filmed in Chicago.

[brownfoxx76]

My dad told me that he loves this movie because his high schol experience was EXACTLY like this! He was in high school from 1966-1969 at Frederick Douglass High in Baltimore MD!

[goonie50]

if anyone ever wondered what ever happened to Brenda, she was good friends with my 3rd cousin that i never met and my aunt told me that she's living in NYC at the time....DIVORCED!!!!

[mwhite36]

@goonie50 If you can get a picture (taken recently or anytime) of Cynthia Davis, and post it here on YouTube - that would be cool!

[princess11222]

I've always heard that this movie was based on a true story.

[Nickcat5]

@princess11222 Probably based on facts if not exactly taken from them!

[GanonLives]

This movie brings back a lot of memories for me. And it is really funny to see my old home town like this with the old Els and of course Sets. Do you guys know what Sets are? hahaha not gang sets (sets) people still have them in Chicago even to this day.

[donnylovesayesha1]

Cooley High is one of he best movies of all time. We had it on VHS and now I have in on DVD.

[quincee33]

respect......none of my black friends have ever heard of this movie, i'm a white canadian and i've seen it......maybe cuz my friends are jamaican-canadian not african-american, but this is a classic!

[nublackmusic]

Thank you for your comment. This film depicts chicago in the 1960's. At the time of the making of this film (the 1970's) West indian blacks were just coming to the states in huge numbers. If your friends have not seen it then please share it with them. Peace!!

[brandnewfunk09]

i'm confused about why there's a thumbs down next to your comment but i appreciated it.

you should show it to your friends if you havnt already.

[quincee33]

i'll do that.
