946.0. "Clockers" by IMTDEV::BRUNO () Wed Sep 20 1995 15:48

         I saw Spike Lee's new movie, "Clockers" at the Twin Peaks in 
    Colorado Springs this past weekend.  I enjoyed the movie, but Spike
    went a little nuts on the scenes with dead victims of gunshot wounds.
    I'm sure he had a point to make, but...
    
         The story is about a "clocker" (entry-level drug dealer who works
    the streets around-the-clock) who is suspected of killing another
    clocker and is therefore being hounded by detectives who want to nail
    him.  The story includes callused cops who make snide comments while 
    examining dead bodies, copious racial insults, and a generally negative
    outlook on life.  
    
         ...but it is done well.

    	Does anyone know what happened to Clockers in the Boston
    	Worcester MA area?  Did it come and go?
