"Collateral Beauty" made its debut on HBO tonight and I loved it. I recall seeing the commercials for this film, but I never got around to seeing it. Actually I'm glad that I didn't see this with a crowd. It was an intimate, thoughtful movie with great actors and performances. I believe that this is one of those films that will "grow" on people and will one day be seen as a classic. I specifically enjoyed Will Smith's performance, as well as Helen Mirren.

I have already sent out a message to friends that this is a show to watch. If you missed the first 3 episodes, then spend some time binge watching them. You'll be glad that you did. I like it much better than "Greenleaf" which is also on the Oprah network. I give it 2 thumbs up!

The only "star" that I was familiar with on "Queen Sugar" is Dondre Whitfield from the old "Cosby Show'. He's all grown up and is quite handsome. I wasn't familiar with either of the two female leads, but they are really enjoyable to watch. I hope that white audiences will give this show a chance, but most intelligent African-Americans will enjoy and be proud of the terrific writing and directing.
