Frankie L. Faison, Hill Harper, and Zoe Saldana star in director Pete Chatmon’s tale of an emerging African American actor who embarks on a frantic race to prevent the love of his life from marrying another man. After being ejected from a casting call for a tempestuous outburst, told by his mother that he will soon be homeless in the city, and discovering that his one-time fiancée is set to be married in just thirty-eight hours, the lovelorn thespian sets out to get his act together and convince his would-be bride that the pair were always meant to be together., In the hilarious tradition of Robert Townsend’s “Hollywood Shuffle” comes this witty and engaging romantic comedy about the professional and personal travails of a black actor (Dorian Missick). He deals with one-track-mind filmmakers who only offer him stereotypical black roles and tries to cope with the return of his ex-fiancée (Zoe Saldana), who is about to marry. Written and directed by Pete Chatmon. Hill Harper, Frankie Faison, William Sadler, Tonya Pinkins, Keith Nobbs.
