On this episode of The Wright Perspective Podcast, siblings Aubrey, Genia and Brittany recap and review House Party (1990), written and directed by Reginald Hudlin and starring Christopher "Kid" Reid and Christopher "Play" Martin, also known as Kid n Play.
After discussing the social impact of House Party, including Kid’s iconic haircut and the Kid ‘n Play kick step, the Wrights pick a voting symbol (06:04) and then do a high-level recap (15:14). The siblings then go on to discuss some of their favorite and least favorite parts of the film (27.49), stopping to celebrate the realistic portrayal of Black teen (34:31) in spite of the fact that the actual cast members were in their 20’s and 30’s (53:40).
