Flash Back To Brenda & Preach From Cooley High Circa 1975!
Shared From @luvvjones__
• • • • Fun Fact: Cynthia Davis who played Brenda, wasn’t an actress prior to the movie. She was a 17 year old girl who lived/went to school in Chicago. She also wore glasses but didn’t wear them filming so she couldn’t see clear.
She recalls, The part when I went to tell Martha they were gambling in back, what I really said to her in a whisper was, “They don’t know I can’t see a thing without my glasses.”
True story. I really can only see a blur of anything outside of 3” in front of my face. I’m nearsighted. You think I’m joking, lol. No, it’s true. 🖤
