Product Description: Sparks fly both on and off the court in this groundbreaking feature debut by writer-director Gina Prince-Bythewood (The Old Guard), which elevated the coming-of-age romance by giving honest expression to the challenges female athletes face in a world that doesn’t see them as equal.

Sanaa Lathan (Alien vs. Predator) and Omar Epps (Higher Learning) make for one of the most iconic screen couples of the 2000s as the basketball-obsessed next-door neighbors who find love over flirtatious pickup games, fall apart under the strain of high-pressure college hoops and families, and drift in and out of each other’s lives as they pursue their twin aspirations of playing professionally.

Aided by stellar supporting performances and an eclectic R&B soundtrack, Love & Basketball captures the intoxicating passions, heartbreaking setbacks, and sky-high ambitions that mark a young woman’s journey to the top of her game and to lasting love.

Trailer and Clips for BEYOND THE LIGHTS Starring Gugu Mbatha-Raw and Nate Parker

The drama "Beyond the Lights" opens in theaters today, so here are a trailer and four clips for the film. Like a modern version of "The Bodyguard", the film tells the story of Noni (Gugu Mbatha-Raw), the music world's latest superstar, who is having a hard time coping with the pressures of fame, until she meets Kaz (Nate Parker), a young cop assigned to her security detail. Noni and Kaz eventually fall for each other and Kaz's love gives Noni the courage to find her own voice and break free to become the artist she was meant to be. The formula is definitely an old one, but so far the reviews are mostly positive with strong praise directed towards Mbatha-Raw's performance as well as writer/director Gina Prince-Bythewood's firm grasp on the project which could have devolved into a cheesy mess. The film also stars Minnie Driver, Danny Glover, Darryl Stephens and Benito Martinez.
