COMMENTS FROM THE PANEL:
Alan Carter: Who ever thought a pimp could be sexy? Anthony brought a strangely-endearing, sometimes scary, often confounding role as a pimp and made him...likable. To find yourself rooting for the bad guy...as millions did, speaks to the complexity of what he did on screen.
