Review title: Social and racial commentary thru dialogue
Product review: Simple is one of those characters you'll never forget. A low class working African-American man of little education but with a lot of common wisdom, he attends the same bar and has discussions with the bartender (ie. the narrator) regarding social and, most important, racial issues during that period in America (the '50s). Somewhat dated now (or that's what we hope), the stories are still enjoyable. What makes it so enjoyable is the great dialogue, which is of such clever wit. From the first line that Simple utters, it defines him: "If you want to know about my life, don't look at my face, don't look at my hands. Look at my feet and see if you can tell how long I been standing on them." No wonder Langston Hughes later turned to writing for the theatre. It's a pity he's not around anymore. Most movies today could really use someone like him to craft their dialogue.
