I agree....It wasn't as raw as I was expecting it to be, but it was very good nonetheless. And I'm on the fence on whether it's OSCAR WORTHY or not. I think certain performances were, but I don't know about the film in its entirety. I left the theater feeling slightly without closure. I know Tyler was trying to remain true to Ntozake Shange's work, but IDK. The film did what it was meant to do. Whoopi was a mess to me though.
S.N. Now I see why they kept showing that same clip of Janet and her husband over and over again......
