    Great list and some of in that list are my faves since the brothers got lovin instead of peck on the cheek.

    In Drop Zone, nothing romantic ever happened between Yancy Butler and Wesley Snipes. The film sucked and the only thing that was worth watching was the skydiving scenes. I met an extra on the set of Fair Game who had a bit part in which she played a waitress in a bar. Even she said that the film was bad.

    I remember they left on the cutting room floor the kiss Mr.Snipes and Ms.Butler.

    I'm not surprised. The love scene between Wesley Snipes and Diane Lane in the film Murder At 1600 ended up on the cutting room floor, too. I guess it's because Wesley has a commanding physical presence next to women. The filmmakers that had Wesley in their films saw this and were probably intimidated. Hence why Wesley dropped out of the Hollywood studios scene and made his own films under his Amen-Ra production company.

    It was frustrating back then that some Black actors are forbidden to have extra lovin with a WW on screen. I also remember Juila Roberts and another actress tried to have love scenes with Denzel Washington and he had cold feet.

    About that Jeff and Corey List. I will find the ones I've seen of the ones in which the brothers have lovin.

    And Julia Roberts wanted Denzel Washington in The Pelican Brief.

    Which is why if interracial romance is to be represented fully, independent films is the way to go. You don't need the big studios and the technology to make these films are available. The only issue, perhaps, is distribution. Perhaps talk to Fred Williamson at Po' Boy Productions, he might be able to help.

    The thing I never got about that is how are you going to further race relations by giving in to racism. Interracial makes racist uncomfortable not no-racist.

    In the Hollywood system, it's about the bottom line; money.

    Save the Last Dance made a lot of money but,the studios are ingrained with racism.

    And those studios are run by Jewish men. I don't think that they would have anything to do with racism. In the past actors like Paul Newman were boycotted in the South because he marched in support of civil rights.

    Great trailer. Great cast. No surprise that it will be in the Oscar nominations. And it will be a pleasant surprise if Will Smith wins for Best Actor since he didn't win for Concussion.
