(Memphis Commercial Appeal) — The soft-spoken product of a single-parent household in the South Memphis neighborhood now known as Soulsville, self-made concert promoter Julius Lewis wants to make some noise as Memphis’ first African-American movie entrepreneur.
Lewis’ debut feature, “N-Secure,” a glossy romantic thriller with such familiar TV faces as Tempestt Bledsoe (“The Cosby Show”) and Essence Atkins (“Half & Half”), opens Friday in close to 600 theaters nationwide, in cities with a record of support for the “urban” motion pictures of such filmmakers as Tyler Perry and Ice Cube.
