In #GreasedLightning Wendell Scott gets knocked over the fence and gets right back in the race. Damaged car but still rollin. Doesn't win but finishes. THAT is the hashtag in a nutshell, and what being Black is all about. #TheBlackExperienceOnFilm

I want to second that emotion. I just so happened to have my lil cousin with me tonight and it was cool being two brothas watching two brothas discuss Black film. I'm trying to show and prove here. #TheBlackExperienceOnFilm #TCMParty pic.twitter.com/8BfW0bp2vg

I'd imagine Richard Pryor and Beau Bridges' yearbook pictures to look something like this ... #greasedlightning #TheBlackExperienceOnFilm #TCMParty @TheAAFCA @tcm pic.twitter.com/QbBjY7LnQl

@msinsm Michael Schultz is a national treasure. I'ma keep sayin that. And now that it's been said, I gotta say that I've been looking forward to#GreasedLightning more than any other movie during this #TheBlackExperienceOnFilm series. A family favorite. https://t.co/IGaYoL4qyn

Two high speed films were shot in Georgia and hit theaters in 1997: #greasedlightning and #smokeyandthebandit. #TheBlackExperienceOnFilm #TCMParty @theaafca @tcm pic.twitter.com/wbC0VC4st1

@PamGrier and #RichardPryor met shooting #GreasedLightning. They had chemistry on and off the screen. #TheBlackExperienceOnFilm #TCMParty @TheAAFCA pic.twitter.com/kGph2Kf1Xd

I enjoyed watching them giving their perspectives on the films. They should consider a podcast.#TheAAFCA #TCMParty #TCM

I expected it to be a dream sequence, what a brilliant film! #WatermelonMan #TCMParty #TheBlackExperienceOnFilm

Although considered controversial, the ending of #WatermelonMan makes perfect sense. After all that negative treatment Jeff received why WOULDN'T he turn militant? It actually reflects how many black men feel.#TheBlackExperienceOnFilm#TCMParty#TCM

Going to miss these @theaafca commentators. I hope they do a series wrap-up tweet with all their twitter handles bc I've missed some of them. Better yet, just keep doing TCM intros/outros forever 😄 #TheBlackExperienceOnFilm #TCMParty

So glad I pushed though my sleepiness to watch #WatermelonMan with the rest of the #TCMParty folks. What a great film! Wish I'd seen it earlier. Thanks, @theaafca and @tcm!#TheBlackExperienceOnFilm#TCM

Maybe Estelle Parsons realized that she was one of those, to a point, liberals? #WatermelonMan #TCMParty #TheBlackExperienceOnFilm
