josh and i saw this film a few days ago. it is magnetic and deeply imaginative. both lead characters, quevenzhane wallis and dwight henry are untrained actors, yet portrayed their characters with flawless accuracy. the outreach coordinators of the film explained that the film, “speaks about home, identity, history, mythology, and survival, in a uniquely powerful and personal way.” it is certainly the best film i’ve seen in years. watch the trailer; unlike the average trailer, there are no spoilers, just a feel for the film. go see it!









Hey,
I see our images came through to your article but…I wanted to say that this film looks truly unique and, although I haven’t had a chance to watch it yet, I can’t wait for the experience!
I have loved reading everyone’s feedback from the movie.
I dreamed about this, but have not seen the movie. Weird.
Ive been dying to see this! I can’t wait to check it out. I ws worried it might be a let down, but your positive review keeps my hopes up
It just opened here on Friday. I’ve been dying to see it! I’m hoping to have a free afternoon this week so I can treat myself to a movie.
I want to see this movie. I saw the trailer for it and fell in love. I’m thinking of taking my mom
It looks lovely, definitely on my list to watch! http://emsdarkroom.blogspot.co.uk/ Emily x
this is playing near me but I wasn’t sure if it would be good! Definitely gonna take you up on the recommendation
That’s definitely not out here yet, but I’ll try to see it when I go home. It looks amazing… I love films that are magical and imaginative…
I’ve been planning to see this movie, but Ramadan and family life have been too consuming. The child actor in the film seems so talented.
this looks like an absolute gem! we are definitely watching it before the baby comes…my fav line, “whose the man?” her response: “i am the man.” AWESOME-ness!!
After wanting to see this for awhile, I just watched this last night–it was so good! I’ve been thinking about it ever since. I love it when that happens with a movie.
That child is beautiful. The film looks interesting.
