Love Jones (1997) Recap and Review (S4:E8)

Was Nina toxic or just immature? Were people actually deeper in the 90”s or were they just good at finger claps (aka snapping)? And if you have a picture of Aubrey in a kufi hat, please post it immediately.

 

On this episode of The Wright Perspective Podcast, siblings Aubrey, Genia and Brittany Wright recap and review Love Jones (1997), a romantic dramedy written and directed by Theodore Witchert. The film stars Larenz Tate, Nia Long, Isaiah Washington, Bill Bellamy, and Lisa Nicole Carson.

 

The siblings kick of the episode by discussing their personal relationships with the film (05:12), picking a voting symbol (16:54), and doing a recap (30:44). Aubrey, Genia and Brittany go on to debate whether Nina is toxic or just immature (35:59) as they discuss the overall story (52:51), the performances and authenticity (01:11:59), soundtrack (01:31:13), and cinematography (01:41:20). After Aubrey shares a poem he cowrote in the 90’s (01:50:54), they vote to determine whether the movie is a classic from The Wright Perspective.
