Similar to About Last Night, Love Jones also follows two attractive young people—author Darius (Tate) and photographer Nina (Long)—as they try to figure out exactly what it is they have together. Evoking classic Hollywood romantic comedies and set in the stylish nightclub scene of mid-’90s Chicago, Love Jones is as irresistibly charming as its lead characters. Brattle Debut!
Double Feature with ABOUT LAST NIGHT…
1997 • dir Theodore Witcher w/Larenz Tate, Nia Long, Isaiah Washington, Bill Bellamy, Lisa Nicole Carson • 108 min • DCP
“Witcher has crafted a film that moves at a measured pace, lingering on the rich nuances of African-American life. Tate and Long have enormous chemistry, turning in sensitive and often funny performances as a couple unsure of their true feelings for each other… Love Jones is a rare gem.” – Tonya Pendleton, Philadelphia Daily News
