The Harder they Come

Jamaica 1973 N.Z. Premiere

This film by Perry Henzell was described by Time: "Fast, tough and sinuous with a score of Jamaican reggae that jauntily accentuates its vigour; this saga of a small-time pot pusher and pop star is a kind of Caribbean 'Threepenny Opera."' And U.S. Nation said: "Deeply appealing.. also a disturbing study of a post-colonial society in ruins."
