Mea culpa, everyone. From these comments plus all the emails and messages I’ve received on the topic, I seem to be the ONLY one who did not realize what Leslie was talking about, and for that, I’m truly apologetic. I think it’s time for me to check-out the film!

Thanks everybody. I always appreciate getting corrections and acquiring new knowledge!

It’s The 40-Year-Old Version. Not Virgin. A movie by the black female writer and star of the low budget film that “borrowed” or made a play on the title “The 40-Year-Old-Virgin.”. The new film had gotten a lot of praise – it’s sweet but not great, but I give the gal a lit of credit for getting it made. In any case, that is the movie Leslie Odom, Jr was referring to: The 40-Year-Old Version!

Just had a chance to read the rest of your review of one of the worst Oscars I have seen (Maybe even THE worst) I totally agree with everything you said (Halle Berry, YUCK) The only thing I disagree with is Zendaya. I thought she looked amazing. Carey Mulligan, on the other hand, is far too skinny. They didn’t cut the speeches, but the in memoriam was super rushed, with some glaring omissions. Primarily Jessica Walter and Academy Award Nominee, Adam Schlesinger. And that ending. Yikes. They were definitely banking on Chadwick winning. It made for an extremely awkward ending and subsequent “scandal” when Anthony absolutely 100000% deserved that win. I love that he mentioned Chadwick in his video. A class act.

Leslie was referring to “The Forty Year Old Version.” https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10642834/
