Gorgeously lyrical with striking cinematography. Hushpuppy and her community's narrative is complex and simple at the same time. In the same category as "Whale Rider" , "Beloved" and "Once Were Warriors"

Well written, well acted, compelling story

Amazing and compelling performance by Kelvin Harrison Jr. - in addition to the acting he plays all the musical instruments & does the fencing scenes himself. Just brilliant! The opening musical battle is worth every dollar of admission. Stefani Robinson's writing brings the long hidden story of Chevalier de Saint George to the big screen with flair and complexity. Bravo to her and director Stephen Williams for their vision and tenacitybring the contributions of Joseph Bologne to the world
