Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins
(PG-13) starring: Martin Lawrence, Louis C.K, and Nicole Ari Parker
Dr. R.J. Stevens (Martin Lawrence) is a talk show host who has built a mega-successful career for himself while denying his humble Southern roots. Returning home for his parents' 50th wedding anniversary, the good doctor hopes to impress the small-town rubes that tormented him as a child with his fat bankroll and sophisticated airs. However, his family is completely unimpressed with how much of a snob Stevens has become and do their best to deflate his swelled head so he can rejoin the human race.

She ultimately finds a way to live her dream while building a bridge between her two separate worlds.
