Opposites really do attract in the official trailer for the new romantic drama She Taught Love.
The film follows Frank Cooper (Darrell Britt-Gibson), a struggling actor who drifts through live on a self-destructive path in between auditions for stereotypical roles as gang members and drug dealers. On the other hand, Mali Waters (Arsema Thomas) is a successful sports agent who is determined, and passionate about her career.
In the trailer, Frank meets Mali and he finally has a goal in sight — winning her over.
“No one can convince me that what happens here is the beginning and end of everything,” says Mali.
