his family history and crazy father Maddog (played

Comments:
Urban
love story. Jason's Lyric is clearly one of the best
urban love stories ever put on film. The direction
by Doug McHerny showed real talent as did his screenpaly.
Allen Payne and Jada Pinkett both showed early lead
acting roles in this good film. Finally I think Forrest
Whitaker and Bokeem Woodbine both deserved Oscar nods
for their work.
