parisqueen I thought that movie was interesting and I enjoyed the scenery. But I wanted to see a love story develop between Angela Basset and Kevin Anderson. But it was a good movie. Angela Basset was beautiful as always and delivers well in the story.

skyqueen1 I really enjoyed the movie although I wish some of the plotline was a little more developed or detailed. However, what really got me was the music. It was incredible. I am hoping they come out with a CD of the actual music used in the movie. Kevin Anderson's voice was incredible. I was blown away.

pvdugas I'm not a cable subscriber. This Showtime movie I rented strictly because of Angela Bassett and Executive Producer Whoopi Goldberg (One Ho Productions). Coming from Cajun roots, I was disappointed at the poor attempt at the Cajun dialogue. (If you can't do it right, leave it alone)Angela Bassett plays a Juke Joint Owner in a small town in Louisiana. She's married to a man who has outgrown the marriage for whatever reason. The time is suppose to be the 60's. I was surprised to hear a customer asking Ruby (Angela Bassett) "Are you down with that"?? I was expecting the sexual tension that I read on the DVD cover. Instead, I felt the movie fell flat, especially towards the end. Angela delivers, as does Kevin Anderson.Adapted from a stage play, I would have preferred to see the play.

barbaramaranto I love a movie like this that has no boring scenes. I think Kevin Anderson is highly underrated as an actor and I expect to see him soar soon. He struck my attention just as Russell Crowe did in "the Quick and the Dead"
