Excellent cinematography. Compelling and relatable story, up until the murdery. Who isn't ashamed of their body, right? At least, to some extent. Thank you, for writing a script that keeps it real. A script that allows the actors to portray real life, without overwhelming ethnic tropes. Thank you for creating caring, intelligent, well reasoned bipoc characters. "Until the lion learns to write, the hunter will always tell the story." Candice Marie Singleton and Alex Will Brooks delivered great performances. They're two young actors on the rise. Keep an eye on them, And you can tell the world that you discovered them before became big.
And before you judge the struggle of body dysmorphia (easy to do when no one else can see into your mind), I have to ask, are you projecting? I struggle with not being tall enough (good thing they don't offer spine stretching surgery for that), I'm not good looking enough. Hell, as young boy through young man, I thought I wasn't white enough (in addition to my African and Polynesian heritage, I am 90% white European. And was raised through the 60's and on, when there weren't people who looked like me in film)., or that I didn't have the blonde hair and blue eyes of my Viking ancestors. I'll step up and admit that I struggle with body dysmorphia. I think it was more a matter of fear that kept me from steroids and plastic surgery. Glad they didn't have calf and pec implants while I was young. Okay, maybe it was because I could afford those options...hahaha. Anyway, look in the mirror first.
