It's A Mean Old World
By the time "It's A Mean Old World" was filmed, Reverend Pearly Brown had been struggling to survive singing gospel music for nearly 40 years. While the rough sound of his bottleneck playing has the feel of a life spent scuffling on the street, the poignancy of his voice is a better measure of the gentle spirit and inner strength of the man.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
