Defensive Linemen in Film: Joe Greene

The Black Six was a blaxploitation film featuring six NFL players as peaceful motorcycle riders who have to right a great injustice. Greene's role is often used as comic relief in the film, though in the fight scenes he holds his own. He does kiss one racist during a rumble stating "Peace and love, brother".
