It was the penultimate feature film of All-American News, a company that made newsreels about black Americans. The film was the first starring role for Mabley and showcased her \"vaudeville-circuit comedy and captured her signature stances and expressions.\" The film was also one of the early iterations of Mabley's \"Moms\" persona. Plot: Mom (Moms Mabley) runs a boarding house for struggling entertainers, similar to the situation decades earlier when Mabley had lived in a boarding house for black entertainers in Buffalo, New York. When the boarding house is threatened with closure and all the tenants evicted due to non-payments, everyone gets together to put on a show to raise the money needed to save Mom and their home. The plot functions as a showcase for performance and comedy sketches.",1682305628,1767744458,"eng",657,{"Rated":51,"Runtime":52,"imdbRating":53,"imdbVotes":54,"Genre":55,"Plot":56,"Director":57,"Writer":58,"Actors":59,"Language":34,"Country":60,"Awards":51},"N\u002FA","90 min",6.6,158,"Musical","Despite the slapstick atmosphere there, the inhabitants of Moms' theatrical boarding house in Harlem are broke and in danger of losing their home.
