Diary of a Tired Black Man is a 2008 independent film that combines elements of a comedy-drama with elements of a documentary film.[2] It is the debut film of writer/director Tim Alexander.[3]

Plot

Diary of a Tired Black Man is both a narrative dramatic-comedy that is also combined with documentary footage shot across the country. The scripted narrative portion centers around James (Jimmy Jean-Louis) and his wife Tonya (Paula Lema), and James' struggle to deal with his wife's outbursts of anger and antagonistic behavior.

The documentary portion of the film follows Tim Alexander as he goes around getting feedback, opinions and commentary from real-life African-American men and women in various cities across the United States about the challenges they deal with in their marriages and dating relationships.
