The River Niger (1976)

An intimate look at life in the ghetto: Johnny Williams is a house painter who moonlights as a poet, struggling to financially and emotionally support his cancer-ridden wife Mattie. But times are tough and the poverty-troubled streets are even tougher, and it takes every ounce of Johnny's love and courage for the couple to make it through their strife, finding redemption in the River Niger.

a very low, low budget movie, great actors, memorable lines, definitely a must see, james earl jones is the man

Family goings on in poor urban black neighbourhood of LA. Well-intentioned but less entertaining than a standard blaxploitation, partly because the film is from another time and place. Of interest possibly to hear poetry read in the distinctive voice of James Earl Jones.

Roger Ebert 08 Jul 2018

The River Niger, a film about a series of crises in an American black family, has good intentions and several very well-acted scenes. But its direction is a mess.

Several well-known African American actors in this mid-70's film about the coming home of a son from air force navigation school brings some surprises to family and his revolutionary former friends. A film from a different place and time. Lots happens at the end and film ends with too many loose ends.
