A movie featuring local talent and also shot in the Lehigh Valley begins streaming nationwide Thursday on BET Plus.<\/p>\n
“Love After Holidays” stars Jacinth Headlam, Malik Yoba from New York Undercover, and Jeremy Meeks.<\/p>\n
Jacinth, who is also a producer and creator of the project, visited 69 News at Sunrise Thursday morning.<\/p>\n
She plays a talk show host battling alcohol addiction. She said the movie is about forgiveness, transformation, and second chances.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She said the host’s problem interfered with her family and her marriage. She had to reinvent herself, and find herself and her identity.<\/p>\n
Jacinth discussed some of the locales we might recognize in the film, such as the Greater Shiloh Church in Easton ad the SteelStacks in Bethlehem.<\/p>\n
Viewers will see “a lot of familiar faces and places” in the movie, she said.<\/p>\n
The movie was inspired by a memoir she wrote called Love After.<\/p>\n
“My dream is coming true,” she said, talking about how she feels about her book becoming a movie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A movie featuring local talent and also shot in the Lehigh Valley begins streaming nationwide Thursday on BET…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":52112,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[214,153,155,154,805,3705],"class_list":{"0":"post-52111","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-bethlehem","8":"tag-_homepage_top_stories","9":"tag-bethlehem","10":"tag-bethlehem-headlines","11":"tag-bethlehem-news","12":"tag-lehighvalley","13":"tag-sunrise"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52111","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=52111"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52111\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/52112"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=52111"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=52111"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=52111"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
