Great cast, fabulous sets and costumes, fantastic slice of life, fair script.
Just a few too many plot-holes, a few too many inexplicable events (why would the dad spill the beans about Michelle's parentage on his deathbed?)
I love that it touches on events in the civil rights era without letting that take over the story for political correctness' sake. That it was about two people in a difficult relationship who try to figure things out the best way they can. A universal story.
Just a bit more runtime to develop the characters a little better, to allow events to unfold a bit more naturally, would have gained another star-and-a-half in my book.
