From Pain to Promise: ‘Maxine’s Baby: The Tyler Perry Story’ at TLC Chinese Theatre

by Ashley Lopez November 1, 2023
written by Ashley Lopez

“Maxine’s Baby: The Tyler Perry Story” is a biographical documentary that delves into the life and career of Tyler Perry, a multi-talented figure in the entertainment industry. The film not only explores his remarkable journey to becoming a successful writer, actor, filmmaker, and studio head but also emphasizes the personal struggles and childhood trauma he has had to overcome. It highlights the transformative power of turning one’s pain into a legacy for the upcoming future to look up to. 

On October 27, the TLC Chinese Theatre changed into a venue honoring Tyler Perry and the history of his achievements. In order to educate the public about the process by which Tyler Perry’s fame came to be, co-directors Armani Oritiz and Gelila Bekele brought ten years of filming to life on screen. In addition to the stars in attendance, the red carpet was illuminated by the overwhelming affection that everyone had for Tyler Perry, both personally and for his incredible body of work over the years. The anticipation for this movie continued to grow throughout the evening, making it a night full of enjoyment.

The title of the documentary, “Maxine’s Baby,” pays tribute to his mother, Maxine, suggesting that her love and influence played a significant role in shaping Tyler Perry’s life. The film provides a tender and intimate portrayal of Perry, offering a more comprehensive understanding of his life, motivations, and the challenges he faced along the way.

Through the lens of the directors, the audience is given insight into the man behind the success, exploring aspects of his personal life, his journey to fatherhood, and his mission to carve a unique path to the top of the entertainment industry.

“Maxine’s Baby: The Tyler Perry Story” serves as a profound lesson in the importance of understanding one’s roots to navigate the path towards one’s aspirations. It is an inspirational journey that highlights the determination, resilience, and vision of a man who has left an indelible mark on the entertainment world.

Film Review: ‘Anything’s Possible’

by Thalia Mendez August 14, 2022
written by Thalia Mendez

From one’s mindset to the TV screen, Billy Porter has amazed us yet again with another film that has the fans astonished by the relatability, creativity and fashion displayed in his new movie “Anything’s Possible.” Held at the Brooklyn Academy of Music the highly anticipated screening was accompanied by cast members Eva Reign and Abubakar Ali along with press, viewers, family and friends.

 

The film which has been released to the public July 22, 2022  follows Kelsa, a fashionable transgender high school senior played by Eva Reign cruising her way through her last year of high school while finding more about herself and others around her. Reign’s character in the film uses her free time racking up YouTube subscribers as she shares her story being a young transgender teen in today’s society while also timidly falling for her classmate Khal (Abubaker Ali). Kelsa, whose name originates from the English language “Bravery” has a distinct connection with animals. In the film, she uses the animal names to reflect their eccentric traits. Given the names of each animal they all coincide with the headline “Anythings Possible!”

 

The film was supported by fans all over the world, many fans including the LGBTQIA+ community shouted out their love for the movie stating that it gave them a sense of familiarity seeing a character like them play as the center stage of the cinema. With wonderful feedback from spectators, one can say the film was a success! With films such as “Anything’s Possible” director Billy Porter certainly sticks to the headline and drives his viewers to live out their wildest dreams, accomplish set goals and stay true to one’s self while doing it fashionably and effortlessly!
