A black film in the 1970s wasn't necessarily a "blaxplotation" film, and Claudine CERTAINLY does not fit into that category. Further reading/research of reviews and essays on blaxploitation tend to refer to "Claudine" as a mainstream movie, and pinpoint it as one of the black films that came out in the middle of the blax craze that actually wasn't blax at all, which was a pretty big deal.

Correction

There is not a clear agreement on the exact working definition of the Blaxploitation genre. While Claudine is not universally agreed on as a Blaxploitation (as is Shaft, for example), to say that it is "certainly not" a Blaxploitation film is plain wrong. Under many working definitions it would be categorized as such.

Claudine did not win the Golden Globe for best actress.

This film is a better representation of life, not an exploitation film. Also, the welfare commentary in the article is excessive.The Budzone guy 00:53, 1 October 2015 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Beadbud5000 (talk • contribs)

Fair use rationale for Image:Claudinemovie.jpg

Image:Claudinemovie.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
