I was not prepared for so fine a film. Perhaps one never is prepared for true excellence. It presented a world into which most can never go, but a world where other filmmakers pretend to take us. Only Spike Lee's films have given me a sense that I am getting a glimpse of this intense and intensely human world, yet Lee's films are so dramatic I'm always aware that it is a story being told, even if by a master storyteller. "FRESH" seemed to unroll before me as if happening then and there. I remain moved, shocked, amazed.
