Although I liked both main characters I related more to Percival for personal reasons. I dug what Andre Benjamin was putting out there on screen. Depression and suicide are not easy subjects for Black folks and he was doing it...dealing with that quite well in the role.

I was riveted during Chronomentrophobia and at the end during the PJ and Rooster video. He's not the greatest singer but he certainly has a magnetic quality when he performs.

Too bad you think that way. There was some interesting things happening with Percival in the film.

Terrence (the only cat I actually know) had a moment but his performance was mostly stereotypical and cardboard.
