8. Personal view of the film

A. These three young men belong to ‘Hip-Hop’. This movement developed during the seventies in the USA, especially in the New York Bronx. It includes rap-songs, graffiti paintings as well as breakdance. For young boys and girls this movement is becoming more and more a kind of expression. They see it as a way to achieve something. Here they can express their longing for admiration, their desires and their disappointments.

B. For too many young people in the USA - especially those living in slums such as the New York Bronx - life seems to be without sense. “Only living people are able to cry. People murder people. A world without sense.” This is their reaction sung in a rap-song.

C. The film isn’t a copy of usual breakdance films. Belafonte shows more. He shows the life of youth in the Bronx and their thrilling joy of life. And he demonstrates breakdance in nearly acrobatic pictures. Little Lee, whose feet seem to be of gum when the rhythm of breakdancing not only as a means of earning some cents. For him it is more than just dancing. In it he expresses his disappointments and his longing for something better.

D. Those young people - Black and White - create a world of their own - a wild, crazy, colourful world, and the rhythm of their music is their pulsation. For a short time they forget the cruelty of daily life in a world without illusions and without pity. The film tries to seize light and darkness of that life.

E. So it is understandable why little Black Lee is breakdancing in the streets of New York, why Ramon - an unemployed white boy who is painting the white trains of the New York subway -considers himself to be an artist. And Kenny, who is unemployed, too, as a disc jockey produces his own music, mixing it with the help of things like dropping watertaps or brushes, thus producing a truly fascinated music. The reaction of his audience speaks for itself.

F. My first impression was that the problem dealt with is not presented as cliches, everybody gets a lot background information. In an interview Harry, Belafonte said: “I’ve followed break-development attentively. It is an outcry of a youth we all have forgotten. A shriek of a youth without future in reality, with true ‘no future’...”

G. Breakdance, graffiti-painting, rap-songs, Hip-Hops... - fascinating words, but what about their background? What make Black youth in the USA engage in such admittedly impressive hobbies? “Beat Street”, a film produced by Harry Belafonte, provides some information. There a lot of pros and cons about this film, a lot of different opinions about it.
