Moonlight

[CBStew]

I just saw "Moonlight" (Thanks to Amazon TV).  It is a sensitive and haunting story.  It depicts three phases of the life of an African American in Miami.  It is worth your time. There are no big named stars, but all of the important roles are outstandingly acted. 

SPOILER ALERT




He is gay.  It starts with him as a depressed boy who is the son of a drug addict prostitute.  In the second phase he is a withdrawn misfit in high school who realizes that he is "different".  In the final episode he is an angry, drug dealing ex-con.  Right.  It is not a feel good, date movie.  I have not seen LaLa Land.  Nor will I even watch it on TV.  Well, maybe on TV.

I can't say how pleased I am that LaLa Land didn't win the best picture award.  Moonlight is an experience.   Go see it or download it.
