Ed . Aug 29 Slick, silly stuff but an interesting Diana, as always (NYT) Enjoyable trifle that Diana should have deferred until completing another higher quality film or two. Diana Ross made an impressive acting debut in Lady Sings the Blues and then followed up with the lightweight Mahogany. Had she instead found another critical favorite, she would have had more latitude in putting out a movie like Mahogany. Or, if Mahogany were better constructed, Diana might have been the 70s urban version of Doris Day's early 60s classics. Instead, she lost momentum and wasn't taken seriously as an actress. The Wiz, a few years later, certainly didn't help. She was roasted for vainly portraying a Dorothy that, though noted as older than Judy's version, could no way be convincingly accepted by any seeing film patron.

Do you like the things? That life is showing you Where are you going to? Do you know? Do you get? What you're hoping for? When you look behind you There's no open doors What are you hoping for? Do you know? See more 10/21/2017 Theme from Mahogany I felt was a wonderful movie. There was so many meanings involved all in one. First off anything can happen at any min. One day a poor women was working in the US as a dress designer and the next min she is a star fashion designer in Rome. The most important meaning of the movie was yet as successful as she was she had no one to share it with (as stated in the movie) in the end she chose her old life gave up everything to being a star to go back with the one she loved. The song Mahogany ---- Do You Know Where you're going to? Do you like the things? That life is showing you Where are you going to? Do you know? Do you get? What you're hoping for? When you look behind you There's no open doors What are you hoping for? Do you know? This song represents my life in all stages. The words have and always will touch me. Unless you truly know what you want you will always wonder "Do you know where you are going to." See more Read all reviews
