Wilson Morales of BlackFilm.com and RottenTomatoes sent me a great update link on Tyler Perry's Feb. 2006 movie release, Madea's Family Reunion. I've seen the play.
Perry's themes are universal,
,timeless, christian and wonderful examples of how you can create a marketable product with a Christ-centered message
Who hasn't? Can't wait to see how this looks as a screenplay.

For those who aren't familiar with Tyler Perry. He is a great and gifted Christian writer, who writes about Christian themes. I highly recommend his movies and plays. If you are not African-American, please take a second look at this man's work. His themes are universal, timeless and wonderful examples of how you can create a marketable product with a Christ-centered message. What say you? Does anyone else have any drawbacks to viewing this movie outside of race?

Diary of a Mad Black Woman was one of the best films I've ever seen, certianly the best comedy. I can't wait for this new film.

Thank you for passing that along, Dee. I'll try to remember it, with what little memory I have left. :-)
