An adaptation of James Baldwin's novel. Regina King won the Oscar for best supporting actress.
Sinekatalog’s take
Barry Jenkins's Baldwin adaptation is a lush, aching love story under the pressure of injustice. Regina King is superb, and the film's colour, music and tender closeups create a deeply romantic mood.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
