Plotaholics Podcast, Episode 139 – Life (1999)

It’s February!

We’ve decided to take things in a little bit of a different direction as we go into Black History month as we discuss the 1999 buddy-comedy, Life, starring Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence alongside a literal who’s-who in Black Cinema. 

In this film, Murphy and Lawrence play bootleggers who are framed for murder and are sent to a Mississippi prison. This film follows their misadventures in trying to get out of prison as well as their interactions with their fellow inmates and the prison’s staff.
