She's Not Our Sister
One Village Entertainment, a division of Image Entertainment, released the 90 minute musical stage production, She's Not Our Sister, on DVD. Directed by Snoop Robinson and written by Johnnie Johnson, She's Not Our Sister has a recognizable cast that includes Kellita Smith (The Bernie Mac Show), Drew Sidora (The Game), Azur-De (Somebody Help Me 2), Christian Keyes (Tyler Perry's Madea Goes to Jail), Clifton Powell (Ray), Tony Grant (Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married?), and Jazsmin Lewis (Tyler Perry's Meet The Browns). She's Not Our Sister was later adapted into the GMC TV (Gospel Music Channel) series, She's Still Not Our Sister.
The story is about three sisters who are informed at the reading of their deceased father's will very surprising revelations. First, the good news is that their father leaves a million dollar fortune. How could this be when their father struggled financially? The will explains that the father properly invested the proceeds of an insurance...
IF A GIRL DON'T MINGLE, SHE'LL STAY SINGLE
This is an apparently made for TV movie shot in a studio and utilizing an annoying laugh track. Three sisters are at home after their father has died. Deniece [sic] (Azur-De) is the youngest of the three. She is the only one who is grieving. She is kind and sweet and favors her mother who died 15 years ago. Vivian (Kelita Smith) is the oldest of the three. She takes after her dad. She is almost emotionless about the death. Cynthia (Drew Sidora) is the middle child. She is independent and is overly proud to be a "black woman" or "Nubian queen."
The movie starts out with a lot of dialouge so we can get to know the the three main characters, although most of what we learn about them is from what the other sister says about them. Sha Wheaton plays Aunt Connie who is always looking for a man.
At the reading of the will, they discover Dad had a fourth illegitimate, bi-racial daughter (Jazsmin "cleavage" Lewis) and a will that leaves them 4 million dollars to split. But...
Great Reflection On All Types of Black Women
I really enjoyed the play. I am a Christian Keyes fan and when I saw him in the trailer I was immediately intrigued to instantly watch this video online. Christian Keyes is a "FUIIIIINE" brother that interacts well with the cast, and is believable in actually desiring a black woman (on and Off screen)...unlike most black male stars. The 4 sisters did a wonderful job expressing the different facets of today's black women. My only down side is the older sister Vivian is a bit overly melancholy for my taste. I hope others rent and enjoy. Clifton Powell, and Tony Grant are excellent additions to the all female cast. Thank you for creating this movie outlet.
