The director is from my hometown Milwaukee. When I see him, I'm going to request that he remake this movie and have Cochise live lol But this is a great film by the way. Thanks uploading
What's interesting about this movie is that every one who appeared in it, except Turman and Jacobs, were not professional actors. The director hired locals from that Chicago area to play the various roles in the movie in an effort to make it more realistic. Stone and Robert were REAL gangbangers, and Stone did time for armed robbery and Robert was shot to death two years after the movie came out. Garret Morris was cast largely because he had been NYC school teacher.
I wondered what happend to damon and tyrone i really wonder what happend to him cause i hated damon contributing to cocheese death all cause he got his ass whipped. I felt he deserved the same fate as stone n robert in the end when they were killed. I wonder whatever happend to him and tyrone too.
I just started watching the movie on RUclips, but I had to remark, apparently there was no concern for making the movie correct in terms of the historical setting. Movie takes place in Chicago 1964, within the first couple of minutes we're seeing the street scenes. They are loaded with cars, including a brand new 1975 yellow Corvette. I did hear that the movie was a great movie, and I am not going to be concerned with that, as they were not when they made the movie.
@@melroze back in the 50's and 60's gangs and thugs was around but it was not at a higher level of violence like today. Yes also live events just like then. Remember the plot is exactly the same but the only difference is the level of violence is more intense, that's it.
Look I’m 26 and I Loved every moment of this movie. Y’all generation was tight and still is!
Thank you .. I was actually born in 1975
Saw this CULT F*CKING CLASSIC when it first premiered back in '75 at the President Theater in the Bronx and about 30 times since!!!
People didn't realize that Robert Townsend himself had a cameo in this film.
He's easy to spot
Yes I remember his scene
Yep. Remember that!
Im the gym
Gym scene..."hey I got Cochise on my team!"
Who cried when Cochise died ????
Definitely sad. When Len Bias died it took me back to that scene.
I cried like a baby.
Yup! Me!
I cried so hard! Every time I watched it I would cry 😢
I did.
Lawrence is an excellent actor I remember seeing him in Claudine.
Autumn tha biblophile can they explain how Cochise was caught on Cooley high in the end?
He was the best when he played Joe Jackson. Beating the shit out of Michael and his brothers..
@@jeremiahmarshall8848 That's what I wanted to know.
Would have been great to see Glynn Turman there! Sometimes it's difficult to get everyone together at the same time.
Did Lawrence age well or what?? Father Time has been kind to him. 👑
@nino Brown6550 Tell me more
Yes it has. He looks great.
Yes indeed!!!!✌✌
🥰
My first time watching Lawrence was when he was in "Welcome Back Kotter". Afterwards, I came across "Cooley High". Great to see him here!
I got rear-ended once, I thought about Cooley High and almost got out of the car, crying, WHIPLASH!!, WHIPLASH!!
My sister Cynthia Davis- Felton would have enjoyed this gathering!!
That would've been nice.
Would have loved to see her there!
What is she up to now days?
She was beautiful in this movie.....
her fine ass
It's AWESOME learning all this stuff i didn't know about my FAVORITE movie, Much THANKS for uploading.
Why don't they make a special edition DVD of this classic movie?
I was 4 years old and In 1975 👏🏾 and when I got older I was able to see the movie on television
Greatest movie ever 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I have to meet Lawrence one day, he was awesome in Rob Zombie's 31.
I cried

He was klled one year after the movie came out.
Cooley high reminds me of what’s happening when Mabel King said go get that belt Roger that
When I first saw the movie my brother and I It reminded us of our gang war days in Philadelphia
They couldn't get Robert a seat??
Or Glenn?
The guy that played Robert passed away the next year after the movie came out . But Glenn and Rick stone shoulda been there
One of my fave movies,have it on dvd.Cant remember what theatre i seen it at so many yrs ago.LOL
I did and still do.. I wonder if the movie won any awards?
Okay Lawrence is fine to be an older man!
Joe Jackson .
Where is Charene Snow(The Sister)
I see Freddy "Boom Boom"Washington ,Garett Morris,where the hell is GlennThurman and Stoney and Roberts?
Glenn Turman was probably filming something since he still acts. Stone was a local and Robert died shortly after filming.
Robert died in 1977 he was murdered
Stone was doing time for armed robbery.
@@muncherclay8760 1976
they always leave out Tyrone like he was not the third main character.
Maybe he has an attitude like in the movie

The guy who played Damon had pass away.
Cochise out here looking jacked

Sorry but "boyz In the hood" to me, stole this movie plot.
I agree
Naw Juice did.

But the events in "boyz In the hood" happened in real life then and still do today.
