Angela Bassett takes on the role of a well-to-do mother who&#8217;s daughter is engaged to a less well-to-do man.<\/p>\n<p>The film follows the clashes, the disagreements and the inevitable make-up. Angela tells the Miami Herald about choosing to take on the role,<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I just think I inherently exude some strength. But, I think I consciously do try to bring the humanity or the vulnerability of the character to bear&#8217;. However, Bassett further said that she is unaware of her own screen presence:<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I look at the screen and I&#8217;m like &#8216;Oh, oh, did I do that?&#8217; You&#8217;re not conscious of what you&#8217;re doing or how it&#8217;s coming out. But, you can&#8217;t be that exacting about it because then it&#8217;s really technical and you sense the technique but not the passion or the feeling. So I always rely on my actors, on who is across from me.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>While Angela did bring her presence and excellent work ethic, it was her decision to jump on board early that secured the remaining cast for the low budget film.
