Reviewing Movies

Noah's Arc was a series about a group of upwardly mobile middle classgay black males from Hollywood who set out to prove that they could be as vapid, vacuous, and self-absorbed as their white counterparts. Thatthey succeeded says nothing positive about the quality of this series which plays up all the worst sorts of stereotypes about gay relationships. Season Two was followed by a wedding movie entitled Jumping the Broom. Had such a series been shot by whites I shudder to think of the reaction in the black community. That a group of blacks did it adds nothing to their sense of identity or pride.
