Curiozități

Black Gunn is a 1972 blaxploitation film directed by Robert Hartford-Davis and starring Jim Brown as the title character, a nightclub owner who gets caught up in a conflict between a Black power organization and the American Mafia. The film co-stars Martin Landau, Brenda Sykes, Luciana Paluzzi, and baseball pitcher-turned-actor Vida Blue in his sole film role.

Production

Veteran British B-movie director Robert Hartford-Davis originally conceived of the film as set in the London underworld and Black power scene. Producer John Heyman retooled it to an American setting, so the film could better fit the blaxploitation trend.

Filming took place in Los Angeles. Jim Brown had an affair with Brenda Sykes during production.

Hartford-Davis and Heyman made another blaxploitation film, The Take, in 1974.
