Executive producers, Rochelle Bates, Lawrence Turman ; camera, Francis Kenny ; editor, Richard Halsey ; music, Tyler Bates.LL Cool J, Jada Pinkett Smith, Vivica A. Fox, Loretta Devine, Anthony Anderson, Toni Braxton, Cedric the Entertainer, Darius McCrary, Richard Gant, Whoopi Goldberg.The sudden death of Woodrow "Bud" Slocumb in a small Southern town unleashes a variety of reactions from family members. Bud's widow, Raynelle, trapped for years in a loveless marriage, is frankly relieved. Devastated, though, is Bud's sister, the gospel and Bible-loving Marguerite, who browbeats her dissolute son, Royce, into driving her to the funeral. Bud's out-of-work son, Junior, makes the drive with his shrew of a wife, Charisse, and their three sons, while eldest son, Ray Bud, and his eager-to-please wife, Lucille, prepare to house their guests. As the Slocumbs argue over the decisions involved in mounting a funeral, what to engrave on the tombstone, which coffin to select, their differing positions reveal long-standing conflicts.

Editor, Kathryn Himoff ; executive producers, Becka Boss, Quentin Tarantino, Lawrence Bender ; music, Tomandandy.Eric Stoltz, Julie Delpy, Jean-Hughes Anglade, Gary Kemp.A recently released con arrives in Paris to do a safe cracking job for a friend. Eric the mastermind has selected a particularly difficult safe for Zed to crack at a large bank. Also, the plan involves hitting the establishment in broad daylight as quickly as possible and immediately leaving for another continent. But before getting down the mapping out of the details, Zed decides to get involved with a Parisian girl in a night of whoring, alcohol and drugs the night before the heist. The bank siege is a botch from the word go and most of the seven-member team are at less than peak performance following their long night, and the concept of a clean operation is quickly erased when someone is killed.
