The Best Man Multiple Choice Quiz | 10 Questions

Answer: Unfinished Business

"Unfinished Business" was due to begin printing in a month, so Harper felt secure that his dirty little secret would not be revealed too soon. He told his girlfriend Robin that Oprah had picked it for her January book club selection, and that he was scheduled to do a 20 city book tour.

Answer: Sanaa Lathan

Harper and Robin's two year anniversary fell on the date of Lance and Mia's wedding. But Harper was still showing his commitment-phobic side and not sure he wanted to give all of himself up to Robin. Robin was a strong, beautiful caterer who was ready to marry Harper.
Sanaa Lathan is the daughter of director Stan Lathan and her name means work of art in Swahili. Before "The Best Man", Sanaa starred in movies like "The Wood" and "Blade". After this movie, she starred in "Love and Basketball" and "Alien vs. Predator".

Answer: New York City

Harper took an American Airlines flight into La Guardia airport, where he was met by Julian Murch. I believe NYC is where the characters all met. Harold Perrineau played Julian. Harold may be best known for his roles in the TV series "Oz" and "Lost".

Answer: Shelby

Shelby and Julian had been a couple for seven years, and she'd been hard to deal with most of the time. Quentin made several comments throughout the movie about how Julian needed to "handle" Shelby. It ended up with Julian dumping Shelby for a stripper/college student named Candace, and Shelby and Quentin getting into bed together.
Melissa De Sousa (Shelby) also played Miss New York in the 2000 comedy "Miss Congeniality".

Answer: Sophomore year

Harper flashed backed to the meeting after looking at a framed news article about Lance from that time. The scene went from the framed photo to the actual newspaper, which read "Sophomore Sensation" and had a picture of Lance under it. Shortly thereafter, Mia walked up to Lance and Harper and they had their very first encounter.
Monica Calhoun played Mia. Monica was also in the movie "Love and Basketball" with Sanaa Lathan. She played Mrs. Wood in a 2006 episode of "Grey's Anatomy" as well.

Answer: New York Giants

All you needed to remember for this one was which sport Lance played, and which sport each team represented. Lance was a running back, a position which Mia coached him on during their first meeting. You can hear talk of Lance's contract several times in the film, but the specific team was mentioned on the radio during Julian and Harper's ride in from the airport.
The gorgeous Morris Chestnut played Lance. Morris can also be seen in other high profile roles for "Boyz N the Hood", "G.I. Jane", "Ladder 49" and "The Cave". I also saw him on an episode of one of my favorite TV shows, "Bones".

Answer: Grand Spivey Hotel

Quentin's father owned the Spivey. That was their last name. Quentin and Harper discussed the fact that Mr. Spivey wanted Quentin to learn hotel management and join the family business. This was in the scene where they tried on their Hugo Boss tuxedos.

At this point in the film, Quentin was getting tired of Harper's subtle judgments of him. It was especially tiresome due to the fact that Harper had "dirt" of his own. Terrance Howard played Quentin. Terrance was nominated for an Oscar for his amazing performance in the 2005 movie "Hustle and Flow". But, it was his other film, 2004's "Crash", that won an Oscar for Best Picture. Terrance has been a busy actor since 1999.

He's been in many films, including "Biker Boyz", "Ray", "Lackawanna Blues", "Their Eyes Were Watching God", "Four Brothers", and "Get Rich or Die Tryin'".

Answer: Shelby

Shelby pushed another woman out of her way just to catch it. Robin did not stand in the group to get the bouquet, and Jordan stood near Shelby. Jordan was played by actress Nia Long. Nia has also been a busy lady since her days playing Will Smith's girlfriend on "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air".

She's starred in "Love Jones", "Soul Food", "Friday", "Big Mama's House 1 and 2" and "Are We There Yet?". She co-starred with Morris Chestnut and Ice Cube way back in 1991 on "Boyz n the Hood", and has since co-starred with both again.

Answer: True

The consummate bachelor, or pimp as he called himself, Quentin dropped it immediately. He did pick it back up, though, so he could follow tradition and slide it up the leg of the bouquet catcher. He teased Shelby as his slipped Mia's garter up her leg. It must have made an impression, as they hooked up at the end.

Answer: Harper and Robin

Harper finally got "it". He'd written the book to purge his guilt, got beaten down by Lance for sleeping with Mia years ago, resolved his feelings about Jordan, and saw true love prevail. Seeing Lance's ability to forgive Mia for her one night stand with him, Harper realized the essence of true love. He then knew that he already had that with Robin. He got down on bended knee before the wedding guests and proposed to her. Her response?
Robin: "Yeah, whatever man."
