Trivia
When bringing Sweet Talk in for drug rehab, Danny informs the clerk that Sweet Talk's age is 30. Morgan Freeman was actually 42 years old the year this film premiered on television. None of the actors playing childhood friends (Saundra Sharp, Hattie Winston, and Dick Anthony Williams) looked that young, more like 35-40. (Robert Hooks was in his early 40s, but he was not part of this group, but still a little old for a successful attorney who wanted to marry and have a family.)

Errores
If the childhood friends are 30 years old, it seemed odd that none of their parents were mentioned or seen. It's a stretch to say that all of them are dead (they'd be in their late 50s or somewhere in their 60s) at such young ages, but yet they're too old to be retired and moved south. Danny even still lives in his childhood apartment, but there's no mention of what happened to his parents.

Rare 70's Exploration of a Successful Black Woman's Personal Struggles

This 1979 made for TV film focuses on Harriet Gittens, a black businesswoman who works in the fashion industry as a buyer. Harriet's pursuit of success has taken her far from her Harlem background and past connections there--including ex-boyfriend Danny. Harriet suddenly finds herself torn between her current life "uptown" (glamorous career, fancy NY apartment, lawyer boyfriend) and the life she left behind.

A refreshing departure from 70's Blaxploitation fare, Hollow Image is still relevant today. The cast is uniformly excellent, with standout performances from Hattie Winston (Harriet's sassy cousin Ivy), Anna Maria Horsford (Danny's girlfriend who does NOT want Harriet back in the picture), and Morgan Freeman (Sweet Talk who was once a ladies' man, now a junkie.)

Highly recommended.
