The Hidden Meaning of Baby Boy

Baby Boy doesn't get the respect it deserves. Most people see it as that goofy hood movie where Taraji P. Henson and Omar Gooding delivered awkward performances and we saw Ving Rhames' ass... That's all true I guess but two things can be true at once. What if I told you that Baby Boy is the most insightful movie about black masculinity of its era, that it's the late John Singleton's most ambitious work? Give me some grace and about 50 minutes and I'm going to give you a reason to give the film another look. Baby Boy is one of the most important movies to come out from its era and deserves more respect! Quick note- Youtube gave me hell trying to get all these video clips past it's copyright bots, so expect some blurring and weird effects. 00:00 Intro 02:38 Background and Context for the film 10:57 Plot Summary 12:24 The Bad 20:07 The Good 20:41 Jody's Psycho-Sexual Paradox (Was Jody a Sex Worker?) 28:34 Melvin's Oedipal Vibes and Masculine Conflict 34:37 Sweatpea and Broken Black Men 39:27 Who protects Black Women? 44:08 Black Masculine Fatalism and Melvin's act of love
