July 15, 2008Not what I expected. Rather disjointed, as there are a number of storylines that interweave here without much purpose or significance. Some themes regarding marriage, blacks, family, a woman's freedom but not really anything very deep... it's just there.

June 4, 2008I just couldn't really get into this film...there is a nice array of talent however, the mish mash of storylines strain to connect to one another and eventually they fall by the way side and I just didn't care any more

March 30, 2008Too long. Too BORING. The story hinges on one racist event that I dont even find that racist. Uninteresting characters. A 'miniseries' i didnt care about

January 27, 2008The ending was really great! I'm so glad we got to watch this in an American Experience class.
