Jean of the Joneses is a 2016 Canadian comedy-drama film written, directed, and co-produced by Stella Meghie (in her feature directorial debut).

It stars Taylour Paige, Sherri Shepherd, Erica Ash, Michelle Hurst, Mamoudou Athie, François Arnaud, and Gloria Reuben.

Her grandmother reveals that she always knew that Gordan was still living nearby in Harlem and lied about him returning to Jamaica, which devastates her daughters for having been prevented from seeing their father.

She also invites Ray, who reveals that he read her book of short stories and asks her if she truly believes she is destined to end up single and alone, telling her that to do so would be a choice, not her fate.

Maureen tells Jean she loves her, Anne decides to keep her baby and Janet, still separated from her husband, works towards co-parenting peacefully with him.

[3] Justin Chang of Variety remarked, "Meghie's endearingly acerbic debut feature is a work of modest ambition and commercial outlook, but that modesty proves intrinsic to its appeal, which deserves to be discovered at more stops along the festival circuit.

"[4] Sean L. Malin of The Austin Chronicle stated, "Highly visually controlled, snappily edited, and beautifully acted, Jean of the Joneses is a clever New York comedy about the Caribbean diaspora.
