the preview be so funny that i couldn not wait to see this movie . i just get home and i have to say i couldn not have be more embarrassed at this movie . yes there be time where the joke be funny and but the stereotypical role be painful . joan plowright be a fine actress but the scene with the negro spiritual be just in poor taste . needless to say the laugh be few and far between in the movie house for a largely white crowd ( i be one of a very small handful of black ) .
