A Road-Movie with heart.

Rating: 10/10 (1 February 2019)

Diane and I watched this brilliant movie yesterday, and we were both extremely impressed by the sympathetic writing of the, what could be an explosive script. Any film that attempts to travel the extremely volatile paths of this movie is bound to make viewers hugely nervous, and it did, at least for me.

The pre-desegregationist Deep South might be unfamiliar to many viewers, but the film dealt with the realities of being a Black Person in that awful area with sensitivity and understanding; we admired the scriptwriter's ability to do so. The penultimate scenes were particularly good with their dealing of this point; the pianist faced his worse moment when he was forced to dress in the broom closet before the performance even though he was a world-class performer.

Every performer connected with this film is of award-winning stature. See this movie, or you will miss out on a superb piece of contemporary film-art.
