There is some past history to the story line.

Although it was a little slow (but was more true to the way people behaved in the time period) it was mesmerizing. The performances were nuanced and incredible. Underlying all of this was the difficulty being a black person in America. You would have thought things would have changed by now, maybe in NY, but the more rural towns in this country tell a different story. It was great to see a really good story poignantly told without all the blood, guts, sex, gore, cursing and superheroes that dominate the movies today.

Great movie worth seeing

It was good!!! The choice of choosing to pass as life or black as death was so intriguing. The cinematography was excellent.

Sensitive & beautifully filmed. Acting was superb.

Plot and acting are excellent. Movie evolves in unexpected ways.

Filming in Black & White was beautiful.
