    Dramma intenso e malinconico, che rappresenta perfettamente una storia che purtroppo è più ordinaria di quanto possa sembrare in superficie. La vera novità però è il modo di rappresentare il dramma, senza ritmi serrati e toni accesi volti a attirare lo spettatore nell'ingiustizia, ma bensì pieno di primi piani lunghi ed intensi che dimostrano tutta la gamma di espressioni dei protagonisti. L'attenzione alla fotografia è molto ben spesa ed è molto elegante e qualitativo il continuo alternarsi tra questi momenti di rumoroso silenzio e qualche sequenza che invece colpisce con urla e violenza fisica. Barry Jenkins è un bravissimo regista che riesce a tramutare un gran libro in un gran film.

    There is something extra special about a drama with elements of jazz noir music intermixed with the soundtrack. I liked this movie and am disappointed it took me so long to sit down for a viewing.

    A subtle and gorgeous examination of people trapped in broken systems that never forgets to see its characters as complex human beings.

    Boring, redundant, and slow movie. Had to fast forward through some parts because it was repetitive. I get it, they are in love. I don't need to be shown every second of the movie.

    Boring, slow and too long. An obscure drama in which the most obscure mistery is what is about and why would anyone think that a story so boring could be of any interest to any audience.
