Rockers

Rockers is a 1978 movie, directed by Theodoros Bafaloukos. 

1. How does Leroy "Horsemouth" Wallace from Rockers compare to Ivan Martin from The Harder They Come?

I think they both have some similarities but they aproach the same subject in very diferent ways. It is clear that Ivan has a lot of flaws because he is always thinking about himself. In the other hand we have Horsemouth and his caracter really cares for other people (maybe that is why it was important to him to give to the people the things he stole with his friends). So even tho both caracters develope their stories around the music industry, both have very opposit relationships with it. 


2. What is your favorite scene from the film? Why?

I really enjoyed the scene were Horsemouth and his buddy take over the cabin of the Dj and they get into a lot of trouble because of that to the point that the police has to interfire, but the play their song and they are so strong about the idea that people will like it that they keep playing it untill people go along with them. 

3.  Did you like/dislike the film? Why/Why Not?

I liked the film because I think it has a very powerful storyline and it's able to talk about a lot of important subjects about jamaican people. I think it has some scenes that are really funny and you don't expect them to be, so it is full of interesting surprises. Also the component of how music is so important makes this film very unique.
