Storyline
Jay Brooks is that black guy who digs indie rock, graphic novels, and dates white chicks. After a slew of bad break-ups, Jay gives up white women, "cold turkey," and he goes on a mission: "Operation Brown Sugar". But because Jay doesn't fit the "brotha" stereotype, he fails miserably with the "sistahs." Then he meets the dynamic Catherine, a misunderstood "Half-rican Canadian", who's as righteously quirky as he is. To win her heart, Jay must confront his fears as he realizes commitment is a bigger issue than race. Written by Anonymous

I had the privilege of catching one of the first screenings of this HI-larious film at this year's WorldFest Houston Film Festival. It is laugh-out-loud funny throughout, which is all the more remarkable because, though produced independently, the movie has all the comic appeal of a fresh studio film. The cast is fantastic, and one wonders why each actor (though they work often) is not more well-known already -- perhaps they will be after this takes off. I particularly liked the GARDEN STATE-esquire time lapse sequences (smartly & beautifully done), Mr. Lamman Rucker (mm-mm-goodlooking, ladies) and the Kellee Stewart scene right before the wedding. :) If you have the opportunity to see this movie, don't miss it.
