A true masterpiece, which is beautifully directed Joe Talbot, and stars Jimmie falls, Jonathan majors and Danny glover.
The reason this movie is a masterpiece is that it is a harsh reality as so much it relishes about San Francisco which comes from the black people. Jimmie falls wants to reclaim the Victorian house his grandfather built in the heart of san Francisco, with his best friend Mont searches for his belongings in a rapidly fast-moving cities, that makes him feel that the changing cities have left them behind. It is a story about a hometown and how they are really made, and kept alive, by the people who really love them.
Every scene has a story, every city tells us a story or the story of cities because they are so loved and lived in, which can really change right from underneath us, when any opportunity shuts or bangs a door right in your face, consolation can still be found if you have your loved ones around you, unconditional love or unconditional friendships.
The directing of the film is alluring as you once start to watch the whole, the cinematography will attract you, it is a top-notch. The places we step foot in, whether you stay there for a long time or short period of time, it existed before our phantom and will continue to be even if we are gone. The beauty and richness of our communities can be seen, and no matter how broken that place will be, it can still be called home. A place with depth and emotions, that you leave, that place still has that.
What a perversion it isn’t really more widely applaud for the cinematography alone.
