Make yourself at home with the Carmichael family as they experience one very special summer in their Brooklyn neighborhood that they've affectionately nicknamed "Crooklyn". Renowned director Spike Lee fashions a bold, flavorful picture of family life that nominee Alfre Woodard stars as Carolyn, a loving, but fiercely independent mother who along with her musician husband Woody struggles to raise her family in difficult but often wonderful circumstances. Complemented by an energizing, vintage R & B soundtrack, this tender, colorful film is fitting tribute to an American family.
