This happened the other day when I inadvertently started watching Shaft on the telly. Within 5 minutes of me having the thought, both Kima Greggs and Bubs had appeared in the movie...
Commissioner Burrell had a role in My Blueberry Nights, so that's one more for the list!

I caught a little of ReShafted the other night also, TiTG.
I think perhaps Bubbs' character was Hispanic? If so, that hadn't occured to me before, to be honest. Although, as I noticed he managed to catch the attention of some potentially naughty gentlemen, gangsters quite possibley, I feared terribly for his well-being and changed the channel should I have to watch unBubbs die before his time.
Always a pleasure to see him, though...
And going through HBO's castlist is fascinating...
Apparently, Prop Joe has never acted in anything than The Wire and Homicide: LoTS, for example. Never would have guessed it...
