I don't think it took away from the story in anyway...I think we need to address the fact that cops are paid to be shitty people in this country. But I disagree with Trevor's analysis that there aren't any bad guys in the film

it shows just what kind of person Trump is. When you see pictures of women and children at the border. Little children waving American flags and hopes' of being able to live a life' without abuse and neglect. With hopes of becoming a highly productive independent successful fun loving adult that can confidently make their way through life, as a single' married leading or being a highly productive part of America society. How does he respond to this possibility. Towards women and children with tear gas.

We find out that Fonny's in jail very early in the film, almost immediately in fact; that he's there because he was accused of raping a woman comes a bit later, but it's still not spoiling the movie to reveal that detail. The movie, like the book, is not about Fonny's innocence or guilt. It's more interested in the circumstances/system that produced this injustice and how the Rivers and Hunt families continue to live and love even as they're confronted with and fight to undo this massive injustice. If you haven't read Baldwin's novel, I highly recommend it. Jenkins's film is a wonderful adaptation, but there's lots more in the novel that didn't make it to screen.

This movie aint got a damn thing do with Harlem in the 70s, and our honored author and Black Intellectual Baldwin was well aware of that! No.... Black folks were not all' down in the mouth, or "I and my pops got to steal to get ahead" bulcrap! Baldwin was no where near Harlem when he wrote the book, but was in France since 1970, when he wrote it in 74! See Baldwin hated the common street culture there ....the 5% so much as well as the Nation of Islam, and their concepts , that he even wrote a book about it , called "The Fire Next Time"! the dominant street culture of Harlem, from the mid 60s to early 80s was the Nation of Gods and Earths, or 5%, and it inspired a vib of Black pride and acheiveement over all obstacles, among the youth, regardless of religion, and mind you also inspite of the national recession of 73, to 75, that was like an economic depression to all Black communities ! The Black Panther Party, Republic of New Africa , Simbas as well as the Nation of Islam were all very active in the community at that time and no there were no holy rollers as the movie preaches fact the dominant church at the time was Abbysinian Baptist church, run by Black Power advocate , rev Adam Clayton Powell Jr! Maybe the antiChristian, sentiment in the movie stems , from Powell's , strong stance against gay activists !

The movie is ok, plot wise. I don’t know how much Barry stuck to the source material, but I wish he had experimented with other characters’ narrating, as opposed to just Tish. Really, the movie hinges on her, and her voice was very hit or miss in my opinion. For the most part, I found her to be very annoying, the sound of her voice was way too innocent/present. I don’t know if she sounds like that in real life or if that’s the voice she chose for the character. Just wish other characters like her mother, father, and Fonny, had narrations. The most cringeworthy moment is when she explained to the lawyer why he should call her man “Fonny”. Anyway, for me, it’s a let down from Barry, following Moonlight.

every trevor interview is dull. i understand it is a serious subject, but for christ’s sake inject some life into it. jon stewart said the daily show is a comedy show 1st and that it is not a “news show”. even when jon interviewed people who were discussing serious topics, he injected life, personality and some lightness to it. i mean, look at even john oliver’s snowden interview. it was serious, but hilarious. look at bill maher’s obama interview - serious, but hilarious. the daily show with trevor noah is honestly a big, dull mess. his jokes don’t land, he is a terrible interviewer and the only good correspondent is desi, but they give her the least amount of stuff to do. times like this, i wish jon stewart never left.
