Groundbreaking director John Singleton’s (pictured) extraordinary 1991 film debut — at the age of twenty-three — was based on the director’s own experience of growing up in South Central Los Angeles.
Singleton’s powerful social commentary unfolds with the complex, realistic portrayal of a teen (Cuba Gooding Jr.) trying to mature in a gang-dominated neighborhood.
John Singleton (1968-2019) was the first African American to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Director.
