Comment: bigchassie, unfortunately the same thing happened with the stellar movie Seven Days. It was held to little fanfare although it deserved to have plenty of it. Not a movie about being on the downlow, but it does address HIV. If you haven't seen that, I would highly recommend it. But yes, this movie appears to be one I would gladly see.

Comment: I wonder what happened to Leo Jackson- the dude who originally came up with the script? Based on how it's written in the EUR article, it sounds like dude got cut out of the deal. At any rate, I heard about this on the TJMS yesterday morning. Sounds like it will be good.

Comment: Correction on that movie title: it wasn't 7 days. It's called One Week. (duhh)

Comment: I will definitely see this movie as well. For some reason, we think that if we don't acknowledge or talk about issues like dl, HIV/AIDS, they will just go away. Not so.
Folks are grown, so they can do what they want to do. However, I think it is absolutely disgusting to lead a double life and not give your lover, husband/wife, etc. the option of staying or leaving once they are informed. The sneaking around and lying would make me drop a person in the blink of an eye.

Comment: One Week is about this guy who's a soon-to-be groom who learns that he may have contracted HIV from a former girlfriend. He has to wait a full seven days for the test results and this ensuing week turns out to be the most hectic week of his life. Oh, and the kicker... he is getting married in ONE WEEK. Quite frankly, it's one of the most scariest movies I've seen.

Comment: LUKE***One week was an excellent movie. If I am not mistaken that was one of Showtime featuring up and coming writer/producers. Showtime only aired it during black history month. That is one movie everybody should see. If you have never been tested that movie either can make you go get tested or scare the he?? out of you not to be tested.

Comment: SistaBigBone69, if that movie doesn't make folks go out and get themselves tested, they are better folk than me. Luckily for me, I'd had several tests before that flick, and a few afterwards since I'm now married. The wife doesn't play that being in the medical field already. But still and all, it was a frightening movie. I felt loads of tension for Varon!

Comment: Wow! I will try to check this out. I'm glad to see Miss Viv working. I'm also happy to see that they put an relative "unknown" in the lead role and surrounded her with bonafide talent. That's a great way to get a sista noticed. I hope it does well. LUKE- I saw "One Week" a few years ago at a black film festival in ATL. It was a TRIP! It really makes you think.

Comment: No, they need to wrap the hell up and start getting into committed, monogamous relationships. There are a lot of high risk people out here. I was shocked by the DC stats, too. It is so sad.

Comment: One Week is indeed one the best Black movies made this century PERIOD. I remember when it won Urban World. Folks were sitting in the aisle and they had to stop it and start it over because the demand to see it was so overwhelming. It's probably available via Amazon.com. I'm going to check this out this weekend. In NYC it's playing on 42nd St. at the AMC
