I enjoyed "Diary of a Mad Black Woman." I am a 35-year old Black woman and I almost didn't see it because, I have seen a few Tyler Perry DVDs and hated the way the actors seemed to scream at each other. I thouroughly enjoyed the film. It was not at all shrill. It was heartwarming, funny and touching. I am always happy to see a quality film with Black faces. Every "Black" film does not have to have an "important message." I would like to see more representation of the diversity of ideas and opinions of all Black folks in film. Hollywood take notice - Black people like comedies and dramas, lighthearted and serious films. We like variety and we go to the movies ALOT!
