FOR COLORED GIRLS
I had the opportunity to see the movie last night, As I pulled up, I wondered will this movie give me a different feel to what Tyler Perry's movies have always portrayed? I guess that was what a lot of people had in their minds.
I heard the whisper from the conners of the theatre as I took my seat. "This movie better be good or else I'll be so mad" Looking through the vast majority of people that showed up were "African American girls" either with their boy friends or their girls.
The previews started playing, and with like so many movies starting to bore me already. I started to look so uninterested even before it started, that my friend said to me severally "are you ok" "you look bored".
But then it began, what we had been waiting for, for many many months. I sunk into my seat as the music began, a sentence from the actors in the movie such as " this movie is for girls who have ever committed suicide" that was it, I was sold.
As I watched every single aspect of the movie, it told amazing and true stories of colored girls living in New York city.
My eyes watered through it all, for the very first time in a theatre I teared for every girl that has had to go through any of the pain and suffering. The scene that stood out to me was " the murder of the children" I loved them like they were mine, I felt their pain, their struggle, their abuse. It broke me...
It is a movie that everyone needs to take the time and go watch, get into it and feel every moment.
It was beautifully done down to the cinematography.
I rate this movie an A
