Now who would play Winter, and some fiiiine chocolate brotha better play Midnight...ya heard. |
Try these on for size!!!!
Child of God----Lolita Files
The Wind Done Gone-----? Please,Please, Please------? God Don't Like Ugly------? I read so many books that usually I never know who the authors are, unless it's somebody that is pretty well known. I KNOW when I'm reading an EJD, BeBe Moore Campbell or Terry McMillan book. ;) |
"The Wind Done Gone" is by Alice Randall, and exceptional read, I highly reccommend it anyone.
"Possessing The Secret of Joy" by Alice Walker, deeeeeeeppppp |

Sorority Sisters ~ Tajuana Butler
|
What about E. Lynn Harris? His books are too addictive. If he had a movie to come out I would have to buy it and watch it over and over again.
Invisible Life and If This World Were Mine are my favorites. Note: I thought I heard that Sorority Sisters is already in the works to becoming a movie, maybe I'm wrong. |
I would like to see anything by Eric Jerome Dickey or E. Lynn Harris go to the big screen. They are some fantastic writers.
|
Flyy Girl - Omar Tyree
This Too Shall Pass - E. Lynn Harris What You Owe Me - Bebe Moore Campbell |
Here are my picks:
I'd love to see the escapades of Basil Henderson, in a television series. I love E. Lynn Harris and after reading all of his books, I've decided a movie would not do justice. Child of God- Lolita Files Here and Now- Kimberla Lawson Roby Shades of Justice- Linda Mckeever Bullard Sorority Sisters- Tajuanna Butler |
I agree with all of your choices and ABSOLUTELY cannot believe I left out Kimberla Lawson Roby's Here and Now.
More Picks 1. Tumbling by Diane McKinney Whetstone 2. Homecourt Advantage by Rita Ewing and Crystal McCrary 3. Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston 4. Incidents in the Life of A Slave Girl by Harriet Jacobs 5. The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass 6. Love's Deceptions by Charlene Berry 7. Sister Secrets by Breggie James 8. Beyond Our Mother's Footsteps 9. Pudd'nhead Wilson by Mark Twain 10. A Day Late and A Dollar Short by Terry McMillan Yolanda Joe's books Sheneska Jackson's books Franklin White's books Told you I read a lot. |

e. lynn harris' books would definitely have to be a series! books i would like to see are...
flyy girl cheaters sister, sister mama by terry mcmillan and, in search of sisterhood. because i've acted it out in my head so many times, i would love to see the separation/founding/incorporating acted out |
Definitely "The Coldest Winter Ever"!
Winter should be played by Jada Pinkett-Smith. Midnight--Morris Chestnut, or Omar Epps. Santiaga--Hmm. Not sure. Maybe someone like Wesley Snipes could pull it off. I don't know about the rest of them. :p |
Quote:
I think Rosario Dawson from Light It Up would make a good Winter. Jada is too old. Jada could, however, play Winter's mom. |
