Coffy

1074 Bank St, Ottawa, ON K1S 3X3, Canada

DESCRIPTION

By day, she’s a nurse. At night, she’s an avenging angel on a personal vendetta, tracking down the drug pushers who hooked her younger sister on drugs.

4/4 Stars! “potent pulp storytelling and up-front style” (Combustible Celluloid)

“Coffy is a film that is often quoted as being the definitive blaxploitation movie, and it’s easy to see why. Pam Grier is on truly iconic form here, devouring dialogue just as easily as she smashes through the bad guys…a vital film in the blaxploitation genre and beyond.” (Starburst)

“the legendary Pam Grier justifying her fearless reputation…The script is surprisingly nuanced and grounded…Grier’s fine-grained, vulnerable performance seals the deal. Coffy is essential viewing” (The Skinny)

*Please take note that doors open 30 minutes before showtimes. We encourage people to arrive early. We have a small box office, a small candy bar, and a single-screen cinema, meaning that when most of an audience shows up a few minutes before showtime, it causes a bottleneck. If possible, we appreciate you arriving a little bit early to pick out your seat and get your popcorn. Thanks for your help!
