About Luv (Excerpt)
This is an excerpt from LUV, a film staring RG verified emcee Common. We went behind the lines of the film’s script to discuss the meaning behind the movie.
Common plays Vincent, the paroled uncle to 11-year-old Woody Watson, whose father is absent and mother is in rehab. The film chronicles a single day in which Vincent brings Woody along with him in attempt to show him how to get things done in life. The day spirals into violence, when Vincent’s plans go awry. Ultimately Woody must face this danger and learn what it means to become a man.
Luv is in theaters starting 1/18/2013 — go check it out in an AMC theater near you!
