The Best Man Movie Synopsis & Plot
From writer/director Malcolm D. Lee and producer Spike Lee comes the romantic comedy The Best Man, a revealing look at the more intimate side of life for a group of successful friends reunited when one of their college buddies gets married.
Harper (Taye Diggs), a commitment-shy writer and the best man at the wedding of Lance (Morris Chestnut) and Mia (Monica Calhoun), is nervous - and with good reason. His steamy new novel hits bookstores soon, and when his friends finally read it he knows they will notice more than a passing resemblance to the characters depicted in his book. To make matters worse, Jordan (Nia Long), one of the bridesmaids who is an ambitious TV reporter, has obtained an advance copy. With vows about to be exchanged and friendships renewed, the pressure is on. For by the end of the weekend scandalous secrets from the book involving close friends and loved ones will be revealed, and everyone will have re-evaluated their relationship with each other, their lovers and with themselves - for better or for worse.

Some very good black romance comedies have come out in the last couple of years, including The Wood and The Brothers. Probably the best known out of all of them, though, is The Best Man, starring Taye Diggs, Nia Long, and Morris Chestnut.Read our Best Man, The movie review »
