DVD Review: Something New

Something Different from the same old romantic comedy. Something Engaging. Something Enlightening. Beautiful cinematography, flowing and natural dialogue. Stunning performances by Sanaa Lathan and Simon Baker. A wonderful ensemble cast. A story that is sensitive without being sappy, sexy without being smutty and funny without being silly. This is not a movie it is a cultural experience of sight and sound. While watching this movie you become more than a viewer, you become a participant; a member of the family. You work with the characters as you struggle through issues of race, class, family and fidelity. Director Sanaa Hamri adds an inspired vision to an irreproachable cast and a wonderful story to create Something Magnificent.

Faith, Hope & Love
