Criterion's push into Black cinema alongside Menace II Society and Do the Right Thing. Gordon Parks' 1971 original, not the 2019 sequel. The packaging came as a standard case rather than the expected digipak, which was a welcome surprise for shelf uniformity. Collectors noted the Criterion approach to Blaxploitation catalog titles is filling a real gap.
