Additional Notes

The film is considered one of the worst films ever made. In fact, the film was so bad that the star of the film, Bill Cosby, bought the rights to the film to assure that it never was shown on television. Jeffrey Hankinson was an accomplished dancer, having danced with the Dance Theatre of Harlem and The Alvin American Dance Theatre. The film certainly did not do justice to his dancing skills.
