  • The Best Man Holiday

    Really enjoyed this movie because it does something so basic that so many films/scripts today fail to do.

    Malcolm D Lee makes the audience feel something. Regardless of what emotional response a storyteller is going for, feeling something is so often overlooked in today's movies in favor of spectacle.

    Lee is to be commended as he takes the audience through a range of emotions in a single narrative.

    Great question to keep in mind in our own writing/films, is the audience feeling something in each scene? or are we just watching characters doing sh!t or worse are we watching characters sitting around talking sh!t?

    I recommend The Best Man Holiday. It's an honest film that delivers what's expected. Is it some big budget spectacle or period drama? No. But it definitely has heart and humor.

    I agree. I liked this movie a lot. I laughed a lot and I cried. Lee did a tremendous job here, I thought.

      Haven't seen this yet but somebody told me today it's more of a drama than a comedy and dudes were in the theater crying?
      One must be fearless and tenacious when pursuing their dreams. If you don't, regret will be your reward.
