I never review movies, but I loved this movie so much and can't believe the other reviews. Strong acting, compelling plot, and real dialogue make this a fresh take on the story of race and romance. I expected a Hallmark-type drama or PSA on discrimination, but found something different - a compelling narrative intertwined with modern themes. Unlike other teen dramas, they don't force slang here or stereotypical teen tropes. Instead, you see positive role models for youth. I recommend this film for all. It's family friendly but not boring.
