It was phenomenal.

I loved the movie! It is always good to see a beautiful black love story! I loved the directing and the transitions from scene to scene were effortless!Great Movie! My favorite scene is the one with the family! It was so raw and real!

This film was was an emotional love story that included the entire family (as true love should). I found myself relating to & connecting with various parts of the film & some of scenes that I did not have firsthand experience with, I longed to... This didn't necessarily expose me to a scenario that I was unaware of in our community, however, it included me in the family where the scenario was being played out.I enjoyed following the story from the different times and angles. The film successfully captured & invited viewers into the many facets of what could have been a flat 1-sided story!

Loving, beautiful, movie. I wanted a happy ending but i know thats not reality. I loved the love of Tish family and you see how that love made a way for them to find some sort of happiness in this cruel world.

Epic! Love, Life and Family. The films displays the cost of love and the scarifies we take to keep it.A true trip back in time.

Excellent Film. Uplifting and Powerful. Barry Jerkins has done it again!

This movie was so beautiful, well written and directed. It truly shows the complexity of how such a necessary emotion, experience of being in love and loving another human being was complicated by society, an experience that most black people in america can relate to.
