A Thousand and One

I recently watched this movie only because Tiana Taylor was in it 😍 once I started watching it I couldn’t stop stopping! Very emotional It has several twist and extraordinary, surprising ending!!!

What a way to give birth to A.V. Rockwell's future as she wrote and directed one unconventional, clandestine mother-and-son story. Teyana Taylor led with so much motherly fierceness and passion. I love stories and filmmaking like this—heavily dependent on the writing with strong performances to personify. Reminded me so much of Moonlight.

A slow burning explosive. Authentic performances grounded in superb urban detail, & winning direction make this extraordinary story believable and heartwarming.

A slice of life drama that plays well and keeps you engrossed until the end.

such a real portrayal of what a mother's love looks like! do NOT miss this!!!

Up there with Incendie for most heartbreaking movies I've ever seen.

Excellent movie, great twist at the end.

Great acting. A twist at the end that you don't see coming. Such a realistic portrayal of NYC in the early 90s.

No point in making this movie if it wasn't a true story. Harsh, boring, bad acting, bad costumes and hair, too long, and a bunch of nothing. If you're going to age characters, please do so appropriately. Do not have them looking the same over a ten to fifteen year period. I barely finished this after many breaks at home.

A love letter to Harlem. I absolutely love this movie! All the actors did a phenomenal job. Teyana truly deserves all her flowers!
