A Very Important Story For Our Times
18 May 2019
Warning: Spoilers
The whole controversy over the Time Travel thing is NOT that important. What IS important is: 1. This is a film that should be seen by anybody who believes that Black Lives Matter; 2. This is a film that shows the devastating after-effects of police officers using deadly force to kill rather than to merely disable a young Black man; 3. This is a film that portrays the just-trying-to-get-by lives of African-American AND Caribbean-American people in the lower-middle class areas of Brooklyn; 4. This is a film with two wonderful young actors who also happen to be people-of-color.

The credits cite Spike Lee as a producer; Thank You, Mr. Lee, for bringing this film to a wide Netflix audience. Hopefully it will make some people more "Woke".
