Black Love: The Interviews

Codie & Tommy Oliver

Episode Summary

Codie and Tommy's love story begins at the Toronto Film festival while she was a working as a camera rep and he was presenting his feature film debut. We're not going to get into the details of who was hitting on who or who Googled who (that's why y'all gotta listen to the interview!) but the two hit it off and from there things moved FAST. One month after Codie met Tommy, they discussed this idea to create a place where Black love stories live. That was fall 2013 and they started filming Black Love in fall 2014. They were engaged. They married in 2015, and in this 2016 interview for Black Love Doc they were about to become first time parents! Listen to not only where they stood at this point in their marriage journey, but in their partnership as entrepreneurs, business partners, and filmmakers.
