Movie Song of the Week: “Easy to Be Hard”

If I had to pick one flaw in director Miloš Forman's 1979 movie Hair, it would be the way he introduces Ms. Cheryl Barnes's character midway through the picture, establishes her as a sympathetic character and then proceeds to ignore her for most of the rest of the movie. Perhaps he was trying to make a point about the way society treats black women or perhaps he just forgot. I hope for his sake it was the former.

Oh, well. At least Ms. Barnes got one good number to herself, a number that is easily one of the most memorable of the movie.

I hope you all enjoy it.
