Baby Boy (2001)

"Baby Boy" is the John Singleton coming-of-age drama that follows a young man drifting through arrested adulthood. He's caught between his mother's house, a rocky relationship, and the pressure to grow up. Taraji P. Henson stars as the sharp-tongued girlfriend whose chemistry with the lead brings some of the film's most charged scenes to life. The archive holds 2 scenes from the movie, including a nude scene. That scene shows Henson baring all with the kind of raw confidence that helped launch her career. It's an early showcase of her willingness to go all in for a role, long before Hollywood took full notice.
