Shaft - Movie Preview Nick Roddick on how John Singleton and samuel L jackson gave a seventies classic a radical makeover. http://www.preview-online.com/sept_oct00/feature_articles/shaft/
Extractions: THE MAN'S WORLD Samuel L Jackson was still a student at Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia, when Gordon Parks seminal movie, Shaft, first came out in 1971. It was pretty awesome stuff for me, he says, stroking the neatly trimmed beard which has replaced the moustache once sported by Richard Roundtree, the original John Shaft. Nick Roddick discovers why Samuel L Jackson and director John Singleton just had to make their new version of Shaft. It was the first time I actually saw someone who looked like me, sounded like me, dressed the way Id always wanted to dress and played a hero. John Shaft was our first real hero. It was all about Black Pride, and he was very proud: he was strong, he was smart, he was unafraid. He had the power and even the ego that we all wanted to have. Things were different then, says director John Singleton, who was only four years old when the film first came out. Up until that time, we really only had Sidney Poitier. When Richard Roundtree came on the scene in Shaft, it had an effect which was just wild. Everyone wanted to copy it. Singleton went on to become the youngest individual (and the first African-American) ever to be nominated for a Best Director Oscar when his Boyz N the Hood was released in 1991. Since then, he has also directed Poetic Justice, starring Janet Jackson; college drama Higher Learning; and Rosewood, the story of a small African-American town in the Deep South in the twenties, which was released in 1997. But a remake of Shaft has been a dream of Singeltons since before Rosewood was even completed: news first broke that he was trying to set it up back in the autumn of 1996.

Jackson by Erich Leon Harris With Bruce Willis in Die Hard with a Vengeance ASK SAMUEL L. JACKSON what his middle initial stands for, and he'll happily tell you it stands for "Lucky." Not the luck of the draw, like in the lottery, but the kind of luck that occurs when preparation meets opportunity. For my interview with Jackson, I headed to a converted food processing plant in Pasadena that was doubling as the production offices and soundstage for the new Kevin Reynolds film, 187, being produced by Warner Brothers. I was politely informed that Mr. Jackson was in makeup and that I'd have to wait about an hour and a half to talk with him. Welcome to Hollywood. When Jackson came out to introduce himself, I couldn't understand the lengthy delay. His face showed nary a trace of makeup. It wasn't until he extended his hand to shake mine that I saw the nasty prosthetic knife wounds across his right hand. They looked so realistic I was hesitant to shake his hand too firmly.

DSL A lanky, intense veteran of TV commercials and the New York theater, Samuel L Jackson is one of the busiest actors in Hollywood, averaging five features a year since 1992. After beginning his career in Atlanta where he landed his first commercial (for the regional chain Krystal Hamburgers) and feature ("Together for Days" 1972), he moved north and spent over a decade acting with the acclaimed Negro Ensemble Company, performed with the New York Shakespeare Festival. Although he originated roles in two of August Wilson's plays at the Yale Repertory Theater (Boy Willie in "The Piano Lesson" and Wolf in "Two Trains Running"), he was unable to perform them on Broadway (succeeded by Charles S Dutton and Laurence Fishburne, respectively).
