from The Weekly Movie Throwdown

This week we're staying in 1976 with a look at The Bingo Long Traveling All-Stars & Motor Kings, a somewhat forgotten comedy that looks at the obstacles faced by players in the Negro League in the 1940s. Its heavy-hitting cast includes Billy Dee Williams, James Earl Jones, and Richard Pryor, and it tackles some serious issues while bringing nonstop comedy. ____________________STILL TO COME DURING BASEBALL MONTH:4/21: The Rookie (2002, directed by John Lee Hancock)4/28: Major League (1989, directed by David S.
