Weekend Movie Forecast: Couples Retreat Vs. An Education

In the documentary Good Hair, Chris Rock travels to beauty salons and hairstyling battles, scientific laboratories and Indian temples to explore how hairstyles impact the black community. Jeannette Catsoulis at the Times loves it: "Spirited, probing and frequently hilarious, it coasts on the fearless charm of its front man and the eye-opening candor of its interviewees, most of them women—including the actress Nia Long and the hip-hop stars Salt-n-Pepa—and all of them ready to dish. In fact, one of the happy consequences of Good Hair should be a radical increase in white-woman empathy for their black sisters."
