The Love Section (2013)
Ali (LAWRENCE ADISA), is a struggling real estate agent and ladies man who has never desired to commit to anyone or anything. One night while out with his buddy Chris (OMAR MILLER), Ali meets and falls for Sandrine (DAVETTA SHERWOOD), a single mother who works hard and is looking for love. Ali’s best friend Joel (BRIAN HOOKS) and his wife (TANGI MILLER) are happy to see Ali cut off his line of women, while Sandrine’s best friend Steph (TEYANA TAYLOR) is unenthusiastic about Sandrine welcoming a man into her home to meet her son and mother (KELLITA SMITH). With a declining real estate career and issues with his new relationship, Ali starts questioning just how committed he’s willing to be. One important meeting with real estate mogul James Johnson (MEKHI PHIFER) could change his life for forever. For the first time it looks like Ali may make a transformation if he can steer clear of obstacles. In the end will love conquer all? Or will broken hearts be all that’s left of their romance?

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
It was great to see Lawrence Adisa doing his thing. Very proud of what he is doing and trying to bring to black independent film. Please support him and his efforts. I named my daughter after Mekhi Phifer, so it's always great to see him in a movie or TV show. Brian Hooks is always funny. I could definitely relate to the story line struggling professional trying to make it.The movie had me watching and not wanting to shut it off. Kept me watching till the end. Looking forward to see what new things come from Lawrence Adisa. I wish him the best in his career. I will support any project he is promoting. It's good to see someone you grew up with in print, movie or commercial. Feels good to tell my children I know him or her.
