The Forty-Year-Old Version is a comedy-drama film about a struggling playwright who, at the age of 40, decides to reinvent herself as a rapper. Set in New York City, she navigates the music industry, explores her identity, and tries to find her voice. The film explores themes of self-discovery, artistic expression, and the challenges faced by artists. With deadpan humor and a unique narrative, The Forty-Year-Old Version offers a fresh perspective on the struggles of pursuing one's dreams.

A theatrical producer puts aside his own success to boost the career of a talented singer.

An all-black horror comedy starring Mantan Moreland and sometimes partner (and straight man) F.E. Miller, Lucky Ghost is amusing low-brow fare that exploits the more base, stereotypical elements of old-time black life (chicken thievin', gamblin', runnin' from ghosteses) for laughs -- sort of like the BET of its day. Mantan and Miller win a house-cum-casino in a craps game, only to discover that the deceased former owners aren't too pleased that their old home is being used for "jitterbugging, jiving, and hullaballooing". I hate hullaballooing. The ghosts decide to scare everyone off by opening doors and windows, pulling out chairs, even playing the drums.
