      Grandpa: Don't you run from me, boy. Don't you ever in your life run from me. Your mama don't care nothing about you, boy. Boy, your mama don't love you. You was got wrong and you was had wrong.

      Young Boy: Please love me, grandpa!

      Grandma: [addressing her husband] Now you just hush up, you old coot. Just hush up that kind of talk to this poor innocent baby. Just ain't no use talking like that to this poor child.

    • Alternate versions
      The film originally released with a with a "PG" rating as 'Don't leave go my hand' and under-performed so several sex scenes with body doubles were added to it into an "R" rated film called Black Hooker.

    Sloppy black themed movie
    With the title of this movie at times being "Street Sisters" and other times "Black Hooker", one might be lead to believe this is a sleazy blaxploitation movie. Actually, while the movie does have a couple of sex scenes with nudity, the majority of the movie aims to be a serious drama. Nothing wrong with that aim, but the end results are disappointing. I will say that the acting by the no-name cast is competent, and while the movie is based on a stage play, it manages to hide its stage origins fairly well. But the storytelling is a mess. It's confusing with its abrupt jumps in time, though most of the time the movie is really slow, padded out with scenes that serve little to no purpose. And we never really get into the head of the Caucasian central character. I suspect that this worked a lot better on the stage than this cinematic translation.
