ALLEN PAYNE Y'all
1 hr. 50 min. As each of a group of six African-American friends in New York City approach their thirtieth birthdays, they pause to evaluate life and question whether their hopes and dreams are going to come true as the realities of age, mortality and loss of metabolism start to set in. The ensemble includes: an investment banker with a great portfolio but few prospects for companionship; a stand-up comedian whose future in the biz is more than a little uncertain; a real-estate agent fighting a lifelong battle with weight; a marketing executive who fears that getting ahead is akin to growing old; and a young man in a long-term relationship who is being asked, "Where does it go from here?"
MPAA Rating: Not Rated.
