Question I know this isn't a blaxploitation movie per se, but....

....has anyone besides me saw Rudy Ray Moore's stand-up movie Rude? (1982).

I thought that was a rather old-school stand up flick, with "intermission" comedians Skillet and Leroy, along with Cathy Cooper doing burlesque comedy routines. Truly IMHO the last bastion of vaudeville style burlesque comedy routines was in this movie.

Highlights of the movie:

Dolemite for President speech complete w/a Q&A session by members of the audience. HEE-LARIOUS.

The anecdote on the African missionary and the lion
The anecdote on the Italian boy spelling the word Mississippi

The anecdote on Dolemite hiding from the lady's husband by "hiding" over the front door with his goodies hanging below.

The anecdote on the two Vietnam vets who returned home, one Black, one White and the one "wish" they each got from the US government. (this was mentioned in the movie Dolemite).

Oh, and let's not forget the Dolemite rap and the Shine & the Great Titanic rap

Yeah, it was low budget, and BTW, the original title wasn't even called Rude (as you could tell by the CG font graphics being inconsistent with the opening credit graphics).

OMG, I want to own this flick; it is a classic.
