Because We're Done

First off, Trisha Mann-Grant is the business! Her performance is captivating, funny and emotionally complete as she takes us with her on the roller-coaster of finding out her spouse is going to leave her and then proves she's willing to do anything to force him to stay.

Reggie Gaskins performance is very funny. His reactions are pure comedy and will ring true to any man who 'thought' he was done with his current relationship only to find out, Hmmmm...

The script (written by Gaskins) is on par with any in the 'we've been together too long' genre. From "Malcolm and Marie" to "War of the Roses"; "Because We're Done" is a Masters Class in writing. How do you make a film with basically two people, keep it flowing, engaging and funny without it being weighted down with over spoken monologues?

Kendly McCray is a wonderful flower in the tapestry of the film. Her part is minimal but the lesson learned by her character, as delivered by Mann-Grant's "Erica", is as valuable as any message delivered in this piece. And trust me there is plenty of food for thought for both sexes.

"Because We're Done" is thought provoking and great ride for couples or the recently un-coupled. It's a great film to watch with your ex- especially if you don't want them to be an ex- anymore.
