Exclusive: Director Malcolm D. Lee on the 25th Anniversary of The Best Man

Blackfilmandtv.com's Wilson Morales recently spoke to director Malcolm D. Lee on the 25th anniversary of his first film, The Best Man.

The film, which starred Morris Chestnut, Taye Diggs, Regina Hall, Terrence Howard, Sanaa Lathan, Nia Long, Harold Perrineau, Monica Calhoun, and Melissa De Sousa, was released in theaters on Oct. 22, 1999.

Produced for $9M dollars, the film opened #1 at the box office with $10M. It was the only film from a black director to have the top spot that year and the first since Spike Lee, who also produced this film, had his film He Got Game come #1 back in May 1998.
