As I left the theater after watching Jumping The Broom, I felt optimistic for the direction that African American film are going in. Though it appears as if the same actors and actresses that are typically in black films were casted, Salim’s film satisfies the hunger for an all Black cast with a plot substantially different from oftentimes stereotypical Black Films. Jumping the Broom is a romantic comedy, with depth that delves into issues that African Americans have with one another when money and class are involved.
