It's been eleven years since his tragic death but music won't let him die. On January 16, 2009, Notorious relives the legendary life and career of Christopher "The Notorious B.I.G." Wallace. Notorious was more than an artist, he was a cultural icon. From the streets to the top of the charts, Notorious worked his way to the top and earned his name 'Notorious' from the life he led. This week on nContrast, host Chuck Faush is in New York City where he got the chance to talk one on one with the stars of the film. Celebrating the life and death of Notorious BIG are Jamal Woolard as Biggie, Angela Basset as Biggie's mom, Derek Luke as Sean Puffy Combs, Anthony Mackie as Tupac Shakur, Naturi Naughton as Lil' Kim and Antonique Smith as Faith Evans.
Also on nContrast is a look at Not Easily Broken, a film that shines a light on the frustrations of marriage. After years of disagreeing on what true happiness, success and love really mean, Dave and Clarice Johnson come to a breaking point in their marriage. But when Clarice is injured in a car accident, everything changes. When Dave meets Clarice's physical therapist, he begins to question his marriage.
And from the director of Batman Begins comes the thriller Unborn. When Casey Beldon tries to understand why her mother left, she is plagued by nightmares and a tortured ghost that haunts her and her family. When she turns to a spiritual advisor for help, Casey unlocks the mystery to a family curse that dates back to Nazi Germany. To break the curse, Casey has to shut a door to another world that has been pried open by someone who was never born.
