Biography
Silberg was born in
Kazablan
(1974).
Breakin' was shot in Los Angeles and reflects a different style of
Cannon Films productions. Roger Ebert gave this film 1 1/2 stars, stating that it was a rather predictable story.[6] The sequel, Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo, was released 7 months later, and it received poor critical reception.[7] Later on, the subtitle "Electric Boogaloo" would enter the pop-culture lexicon as a snowclone pejorative nickname to denote an archetypical sequel.[8]
Author Kimberly Monteyne referred to films such as Rappin' as "hip hop-oriented exploitation extravaganzas".[9]
Silberg died on February 18, 2013, in Israel, aged 85.[10]
