Jumping the Broom (2011)
I loved this movie I felt it to be warm hearted
I am sorry I did not see in the theater. Yes, it covers a lot of common issues, but with a different slant. This to me was different than the movie "Our Family Wedding" because it dealt with black culture from a totally different nationality wedding tradition. This movie deals with culture within a culture. In this day and age so much is available to us with just a key stroke, it is difficult not to touch on what is familiar. We are in an information age so much is not surprising these days. I don't think we have seen many movies who deal with issues about black mothers and how they treat their sons as this one has. Also the touch on jumping the broom and where the tradition came from and what it represented was addressed also and needed for those who don't know. Kind of reminds us that we don't have to throw the baby out with the bath water so to speak. We can include our traditions along with adding changes. Most of all don't give your cookies away to any and everybody! I say this is a good product. Kudos to the producers, directors, cast and crew... thanks for a job done well.
