1103.0. "Girl 6" by VNABRW::RHOTON_J (John Rhoton @AUI - DTN 754-2345) Fri Jun 07 1996 04:39

    Did anyone else see Girl 6?  I found it different from Spike Lee's
    other movies in that it didn't focus on interracial tension.  It is
    about an aspiring actress who takes a job as a phone-sex girl to help
    pay the bills.  Some nice acting and funny scenes.  Overall, nothing
    deep but well worth seeing.
