When Yola asked Brandi Carlile to add a harmony to another song on Stand for Myself, Carlile says it took her “all damn day” to rise to Yola’s level, and jokes that she wound up with “a headache and a sore throat.” Natalie Hemby once had to follow Yola at a festival: “I had to give myself a pep talk, like, ‘Natalie, you can’t sing like Yola, just sing like Natalie.’ ” Ruby Amanfu remembers walking along a beach in Mexico at a festival where Yola was appearing, and hearing her voice carried on the wind: “You hear her singing and you just start walking fast to where she’s performing.” That voice, one of the mightiest in current pop, has left a trail of open jaws in its wake.

She sings a bit of its chorus a cappella: “And we try/To get by/And we strive,” she begins, before her voice, earthy but tender, soars up for the last phrase, “But we’re barely alive!” On a Zoom call from her temporary digs in Madison, Tennessee, wearing a brightly striped turtleneck that matches her effervescent mood, Yola is explaining the meaning of “Barely Alive,” on her new album, Stand for Myself. The next minute, she’s demonstrating how she’s knocking them down. Now playing at Carmike 10, Carolina Cinemark, Epic of Hendersonville and Regal Biltmore Grande 1.One minute, Yola is talking about the barriers she’s encountered as a black British woman in the music business.

Rated PG-13 for violence, sexuality/partial nudity, some disturbing images and language. Had she watched the previews, I think she probably have would passed.

While this pretty much looks like a big-screen version of a Lifetime TV movie, my mother likes to watch those, and I cannot say she would enjoy any aspect offered by When the Bough Breaks. This version owes a lot to that 1987 thriller (right down to the endangerment of a family pet for shock value) and definitely pales in comparison. If When the Bough Breaks sounds like a made-for-TV version of Fatal Attraction with the surrogacy plotline added to make it seem relevant or different, that’s because that is all there is to it. The Big Easy simply makes it harder for the audience not to fall asleep here. Williams is likewise underutilized after his arrival in the third act. Cassar tries to employ the tactic of making the setting of New Orleans vital to the story, but this tepid tale - aside from disconnected second-unit shots of Beale Street and aerials of both the bayou and the skyline - could have been filmed anywhere. Romany Malco has his comic talents wasted in all of the three dramatic scenes he is shoehorned into, and Michael K. But, as is often the case with stories told in trailers, the actual film left me feeling as if I were the one who was duped. There are some interesting subplots involving the surrogate’s serviceman boyfriend, workplace issues for Chestnut’s character and a shady private investigator hired to look into the surrogate’s past, but those are likewise ultimately unsatisfying. Neither her initially naïve performance nor her counter as the deceptive seductress go to any extremes, with Sinclair instead playing her character pretty close to the middle most of the time. Based on the previews, I had expected much more duplicity, deceptiveness or even sexiness from her. The chief reason for this lies in the misfire of Sinclair as the femme fatale. Having seen the trailer, the only suspense for me in When the Bough Breaks was how many opportunities it would miss and when the credits would finally roll.Ī happily married couple (Morris Chestnut and Regina Hall) select a seemingly innocent young woman (Jaz Sinclair) to carry their baby after in vitro fertilization, and things become tense when the surrogate mother becomes obsessed with the husband. Director Jon Cassar made this movie from his own screenplay, but anyone else could probably have come up with better and more interesting twists and turns than what actually ends up on the screen. Chestnut continues to phone-in performances that have dwindled in intensity since the strong start to his career in much better films - Boyz in the Hood and The Inkwell - and his distanced style here is most evident whenever he is on-screen with Hall or newcomer Jaz Sinclair. Hall has moments of believability as an upwardly mobile working woman bearing the personal pain of several miscarriages, yet hopeful for the chance to still start a family, but she is not able to carry the film by herself.

Sometimes you watch a movie trailer and feel as if you have seen the entire film - and that certainly is the case with When the Bough Breaks. The preview for this big-budget wanna-be thriller from the executive producer of the TV series 24 neatly sets up, and very nearly resolves, any anticipated drama from the plot.
