Brotherly Love (2015)
Filmmakers positive message for our youth, The choices made in life and their consequences.
The movie "Brotherly Love" reminds me of such classic INDIE movies like "Cooley High" "Boyz in the Hood" and "West Side Story" which I have not seen in a long time. The casting is phenomenal! And the writing and directing was genius! The city of Brotherly Love, Philadelphia and other urban community adults and youth can relate to this movie personally by taking you inside the Taylor home with their struggles of single parenting, unemployment, drugs, violence, hopelessness and dreams. Which Kept me on a roller coaster ride from beginning to end! This movie has an awesome twist; no one I discussed it with expected the ending, surprise, surprise! This new generation filmmaker has a positive message for our youth and so much needed, (The choices made in life and their consequences). This movie deserves attention from Hollywood. LOVED IT!
Money Power Respect (2006)
Cool little movie
I don't care who says what, I like this movie. I'm from the inner-city and this story is a mirror reflection on my experience, not with all the killing but the same pressures. The acting was amateur, but it really kept my interest. I also listened to the director's commentary. It is the director's first film, he shot it trying with some friends in two weeks and got a distribution deal. That's cool. I'm almost jealous. It makes me want go out and do something with my movie ideas. I hope he keeps it up despite some of the "nay sayers". African-American film makers are a so few and far between, someone has to tell our stories. I thing there's a spot somewhere in Tinsel Town for him.
