Episode 18: Street Smart (1987)

Today I’m looking at Street Smart (1987), a gritty New York crime drama about ambition, desperation, and people trying to talk their way through bad decisions. What really stands out for me is Morgan Freeman’s performance as Fast Black—completely magnetic, unpredictable, and carrying the whole film whenever he’s on screen. It’s a bit uneven, but it has enough tension and energy to keep pulling you through.
