Jumping the Broom
Every culture has its wedding traditions. Jewish couples break the glass; Hindu couples exchange garlands; and rich couples sign prenups.
The wedding tradition in this drama, however, is controversial.
After another one nightstand, Sabrina (Paula Patton) vows not to spread her legs until she is married.
Accepting that challenge is Jason (Laz Alonso), a cultured, caring guy, who proposes in less than 6-months.
Now, they must make their families see eye-to-eye on cultural issues, including the ceremonially slave custom of jumping over a broom to secretly signify marriage.
Meanwhile, Jason must confront his overbearing mother (Loretta Devine), while Sabrina sorts through the news that her parents (Angela Bassett, Brian Stokes Mitchel) aren't who they say they are.
Laden with religious dialogue and debates over racial obligations, Jumping the Broom does have its agenda; however, its depiction of in-law fallouts is accurate.
Which is why the ideal wedding is that of two orphans. (Yellow Light)
