I’m assuming the movie was filmed in black/white to draw away from both actresses being light skinned black women who’s story line was they were “light” enough to pass for white women in the 20’s. I kept telling myself they are playing a role.. and to not focus so much on the skin color. I loved the family dynamics of Irene and her husband being a successful black family, I cringed when the sons we’re speaking in that tone, I assumed black parents and manners were way more standardized back then. I wish they would’ve delved deeper into the privileges Claire had with passing for “white” or the dangers with her child. Overall it was a good movie & great acting.

My Name

Midnight Mass

Netflix kept recommending the show so I finally decided to give it a shot. I like shows/movies that don’t waste time with the premise of the show with action which this show did within the 1st couple of minutes of the 1st episode. I’m starting to become interested in shows/movies outside the US the acting and things are different which you learn to appreciate. Somethings I was like come on.. yes def a lot of plot holes if your analytical like myself, but then you gotta remember it’s just a movie and budgets are probably not as feasible so they try to cramp as much as they can and throw out the little things you of course can put two and two together with. I highly recommend watching def had me thinking how humans can get into survival mode and how each character reacted to the situation.
