Editorial Review:
He had all the right moves to put the ball away...until the cops put him awayfor good. UCLA All-American and NBA Rookie Of The Year Keith Wilkes and Academy AwardÂ(r)* and Golden Globe** nominee Laurence Fishburne III give spectacular debut performances in this "touching...sensitive and gripping movie" (Cue) that's "guaranteed to take your emotions for a reckless ride" (L.A. Herald-Examiner)! Step into the court with Cornbread, Earl And Me...you'll be glad you did. Wilkes is "Cornbread," a promising high school basketballer who has what it takes to shoot himself right out of the ghetto...until two cops mistake him for a rapist and gun him down in cold blood. But when the police attempt to cover up their mistake, strong-arming the community into silence with threats of jail time and violence, it's up to Cornbread's 11-year-old brother Wilford (Fishburne) and his pal Earl (Tierre Turner) to find the courage to speak the truth and clear Cornbread's name. *1993: Supporting Actor, What's Love Got to Do With It **1995: Actor, "The Tuskegee Airmen"

2009-11-05 - ..Very timely even though this movie was from the 1970's, I would tell audiences of the 1970's genre movie to add this one to your collection..mint condition!!!

Cornbread Earl and Me 
2009-01-28 - Love the theme of the movie! Even though it was made over 2 decades ago, it's still relevent today! Also I loved watching Lawerence Fishburne in his early years of acting!
happy
2008-10-29 - the dvd was delivered as promised and in excellent condition. And the dvd itself is just one of my favorites I wanted for my collection. A very young Lawrence Fisbourne flexing his acting chops even back then.
Lawrence Fishborne is the star!!
2008-07-02 - Lawrence Fishborne is the star in this movie, even thought the star is suppose to be the basketball player (who was an actual NBA star at that time) Lawrence steals the show. He did a great job. I would watch over and over.
