This movie was a waste of time. I highly DO NOT RECOMMEND anyone to watch this film. It didn’t make any sense from the beginning to the end. The director did a poor job of creating a strong plot. The main character was very great however I don’t think that she was as well rounded as she could’ve been. The “NYC” feel was very boring and not as interesting as one would think. Despite the fact that this movie almost put me to sleep , I would say something that I thought was positive. I think this movie had a great depiction of white privilege and white homelessness. Lu was a poor white homeless woman living in her van, however because of her privilege she was able to steal and do fraud without having to deal with any consequences. Also, spoiler alert *** the mom that had a her baby stolen was a white young mother who was an alcoholic who was married to a rich man. Once the detective realized that she was a hopeless alcoholic they didn’t notify child services instead they insisted on helping her even more. I think that the director showed a clear cut message of white privilege.
