The film centers on Julian Wright (Clarke), a charming and mega-successful businessman who hides a secret from the rest of the world which tears his soul apart every day. With his personal life in shambles, Julian will find himself willing to travel down the rabbit hole, as it were, when he meets Michael Reed (Vega), a gorgeous stranger who entices Julian to forget his rigid corporate world and try a more bohemian lifestyle, a decision that will not only affect his own life but those of his boss and co-workers, as well as inspire his half-sister Rita (Pinkett Smith) to re-examine her life with her abusive husband.

Rants/Thoughts:
1. Anyone else secretly hoping for a successful Naija romance novel??!? (I see you, Abiola Abrams and your book, Dare!) Oh the possiblities!
2. How do Naija folks manage to squeeze in five parties in one night considering OUR parties never start on time?? You already know that not attending a party you were personally invited immediately means you have conflict with that person. Can someone tell me the secret formula behind that success, pretty please???
DISCLAIMER: all rants/thoughts are in good humor!
