(1978) The Glove
CRIME DRAMA THRILLER
'The Glove' as the movie is called is really a backdrop to the real story of Sam Kellog's life as a bounty hunter played by John Saxon- this was years before the popular syndicated show "Dog- The Bounty Hunter", since a considerable amount of cities it is the police that do that sort of thing now- not the bounty hunters. Anyways, we get to witness his life story as a bounty hunter and how he is behind in child support payments, considering he also has a daughter and loves to gamble. And as the movie progresses, this person who's wearing "The Glove" is really an African American man named Victor Hale (Roosevelt Grier) who's tagged with a $20,000 bail after assaulting a national security guard occurred at the beginning. He attains the so-called Glove after stealing the newest and improved rioting equipment, and is now using it to get even with the people/ guards who mistreated and abused their authority while he was being incarcerated. What's dumb about this movie, is the fact that if Victor's on the run, why wasn't the police involved, since he can still be charged with assault after his release from prison. This movie makes no sense, since bounty hunters are usually used when people miss their court dates, and fugitives which Victor (the man with the huge bounty) is seen playing in night clubs just because he's also a musician as well.
