From Prada to Nada

Description

Jane Austen currently enjoys far greater success, and fans more willingly proclaim her greatness than ever in her lifetime. Witness her Facebook page boasting thousands of loyal fans. No one should feel surprised, therefore, movie derivatives of Austen's stories are surefire hits. Clueless, adapted from and remarkably faithful to Austen's Emma, remains a 'tween favorite, and brilliantly produced Jane Austen period pieces remain in high demand on Netflix and pay-per-view.' Set for widespread release in 2011, From Prada to Nada updates Sense and Sensibility, transposing it from dauntingly British to seductively Latina, and relocating it from the English countryside to East LA.  Camilla Belle, Alexa Vega, and Adrianna Barraza star in the story of Beverly Hills socialites left penniless when their father suddenly dies. Equally traumatized by withdrawal from haute couture and their complete lack of Spanish-language proficiency, the two sisters navigate a treacherous passage from 90210 to Boyle Heights. Along the way, they learn to ride the bus, honor their Latin heritage, love their extended family, and appreciate los guapos romanticos. Of course, because it is Jane Austen, From Prada to Nada ends happily, but pack plenty of Kleenex for the cryworthy sweetness of it.

Previously known as Tyler Perry Presents Peeples, this movie represents best practice of the genre. The product of Tyler Perry's genius combined with fresh look of debuting director Tina Gordon Chism worth two hours of your attention for sure. It's not exactly Medea's-like comedy with Tyler Perry dressed as big and monstrous Afro-American woman, Peeples (2013) is more like Our Family Wedding filmed a year ago in 2012. It's funny, spontaneous, lively yet ironic. The action of Peeples revolves around the events at the reunion. A wealthy big family gathers in small town to enjoy each other company. The situation is heating up when Wade Walker, a young infamous "looser", decides to ask a hand of Peeples' lovely daughter Grace' at the pivotal point this rejoicing . This out of the blue surprise causes the effect of chain reaction, which ignites an extraordinary comic turmoil in Hamptons. Nevertheless, Wade Walker has to learn that there are different kinds of Peeples and even the "worst" of them could not be a serious obstacle for true love. Although, Peeples is a directorial debut of Tina Gordon Chism, who was previously known mostly as writer (ATL, Drumline), she managed to gather some brilliant cast: Kerry Washington (Olivia Pope from Scandal, Broomhilda von Schaft from Django Unchained) plays as Grace Peeples, while Craig Robinson (Hot Tub Time Machine, Eastbound & Down) plays as Wade Walker.
