Baby Boy

(2001)Directed by John Singleton130 min · RCrime, Drama, Romance, Thriller
“Just a Baby Boy.”

Jody Summers (Tyrese Gibson) is twenty and jobless, still sleeping in his mother's house in South Central Los Angeles. He has two kids by two different women, including Yvette (Taraji P. Henson), and wants his life to stay exactly as loose as it is. John Singleton writes and directs it like a man who grew up on these streets, keeping the camera at the level of the porch and the corner.
