To mark the release of Brown Sugar in UK Odeon Streatham and
Destination Brixton have teamed up to offer you a chance to win Brown Sugar merchandise
including 10 T-shirts and 10 Record Bags.
BROWN SUGAR is a romantic comedy that centres on the close friendship and the ‘would it, would
it not happen’ romance between Dre and Sidney (played by Taye Diggs and Sanna Lathan), and
their love for hip-hop music. Dre is a record company executive and Sidney is an editor for
a music magazine. They’ve known each other since they were kids when they both discovered
hip-hop for the first time on a street in New York. Fifteen years later they’re back together
and should be perfect for each other except that Dre is engaged to another woman and
Sidney claims not to be interested in Dre romantically. Brown Sugar is a very enjoyable
romantic comedy. In many ways it is a celebration of love, and a mourning of the death
of hip-hop music. It is not often that we get a well-made, well-acted African-American
romantic comedy such as this. It is very funny and refreshing. Brown Sugar also stars Queen
Latifah and Mos Def, and is directed by Rick Famuyiwa.
