Emmy Award-winner
Darnell Williams and
Salli Richardson-Whitfield star in this critically-acclaimed, romantic comedy for the '90s about a group of young African-American friends living in Chicago's south-side. Valerie is an upwardly mobile career woman. She's attractive, confident and ambitious, but saddle with one problem -- her boyfriend Thomas. Bright but unmotivated, his routine never changes: same old job, same old habits, same old attitude. That is, until Valerie decides to move out. Coaxed into attending a "singles" party, Valerie meets a successful man and starts an interracial relationship. When it doesn't work out the way she hoped, Valerie realizes Thomas wasn't so bad after all. But when she shows up unexpectedly on his doorstep, Thomas has a surprise waiting in this hip-hop comedy the Chicago Tribune calls "a refreshing sliced of life."
