Why Do Fools Fall In Love Movie Review Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars)  I Love Lorenz Tate
Lorenz, did the orginal Frankie Lymon justice, with his sort of sexy image, I really enjoy watching H. Berry and V. Fox play their parts, down to earth sisters.

Sad, funny, and a all around favorite
It was the best movie I ever saw. It had everything you wanted to see in a movie like: drama, sadness, funiness, and happiness. The best part was when Frankie accidentally dropped Vivica's dog out the window. I was so sad I cried. The funniness part was when Vivica pulled Halle's wig off. I laughed until I cried!!! It was just the best!!!

 $7.45 
The troubled life of Dorothy Dandridge, the first African-American woman to garner an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress (for CARMEN JONES) is dramatized in this fine made-for-HBO film from director Coolidge (RAMBLING ROSE). Gorgeous Berry shines as Dandridge in a role she seems born to play. Dandridge's close relationship with her manager (Spiner) is examined, as is her affair with director Otto Preminger, along with her first marriage to dancer Harold Nicholas, with whom she gave birth to a mentally disabled daughter. Aside from her personal struggles, the film also demonstrates the rampant racism of 1950's Hollywood which she had to endure throughout her short career.
