Valentine's Day, a shameless rip-off with none of the charm of the
delightful romantic comedy it so desperately seeks to emulate. The
original, set in London during the Christmas season, engagingly
explored an array of both lighthearted and sobering relationship issues

were introduced, developed and serendipitously intertwined en route to a
satisfying payoff.

Sanders is going for in the case of Black Dynamite, a satire or a drama to
be taken at face value.

term that’s generally applied to folks born with wavy locks which are less
trouble to take care of than the more tightly-curled or nappy variety. Back in
the Sixties, at the dawn of the black pride movement, the afro was
embraced as an alternative to adhering to the white standard of beauty
associated with straight hair. But the peasy natural proved to be a short-
lived fad which unfortunately has pretty much gone the way of the dashiki
