Magnificent Brothers
“They hate me.”
Ezra (Jonah Hill)
The barber’s scene is important in that it directly confronts Jonah Hill’s character with the hostility of his future father-in-law, played by Eddie Murphy. A rather short but important scene that Kenya Barris shot at Magnificent Brothers, an institution in Los Angeles.
A city as a character
Deeply rooted in Los Angeles, the story at the center of You People called for the use of real locations. A way for the director and writer Kenya Barris to pay tribute to his city. A desire also shared by Jonah Hill, the co-writer of the script. A collaboration on which Kenya Barris came back for the Screenrant website: “Collaboration with Jonah came because we are both from LA. I love Mid90s, and I’ve been a fan of Jonah forever. You know what I’m saying? We started talking and texting. We sat down for what should have been a 30-minute talk, it turned into a three-hour talk.“
Declaration of love
Kenya Barris continued, “And we were like, “Let’s do a love letter to LA culture and basically more, a love letter to love. Let’s do something like that, and kind of show the differences and similarities between the cultures.”” That was something that was really important to us, and I feel like we wanted to have the conversations that are difficult to have.“
You People sees Julia Louis-Dreyfuss and Eddie Murphy team up for the first time on the big screen. However, they appeared together in the credits of Saturday Night Live.
Magnificent Brothers Barber & Beauty Salon
This South Los Angeles barber is like no other. Open since the 1960s, it dictates fashion and thus enjoys a reputation that has long since exceeded the city limits.
A meeting point where old and younger customers chat while waiting to pass under the scissors of the master of the place, the Magnificent Brothers barber has been officiating for several decades. Being an integral part of the most famous hairdressers of the African-American community, he managed to carve out a reputation that ensured him a real celebrity in Los Angeles.
