    This should be on TV

    This Film I watched at Spaghetti Junction Urban Film Festival In Atlanta. It was kinda was similar to the HBO movie Lackawanna Blues. The same time period the 1940's-1950's. The lead actor guy was good as a bad guy. He stood out as the best actor in the whole film. The young girl in it was not the best actress but I think the rest of the cast made her better. The production was great, the directing was great , the writing was good and the subject matter was really deep. I think this could have been a TV movie or a mini series like Laurel Avenue or Roots. This is worth watching if you get a chance to see it. I really think it should be longer or a TV movie. Or one of those mini series types. Like The one Oprah had on recently with Halle Berry this is in that same genre.
