At first I was like oh, this is a surrogate romcom with black people substituted, like really white black people, whitened that is, that's cool, casue I don't know much about black culture, I'm Latin and really whitened as I don't know much about Mexican culture lol.... But, as it turned out, I didn't really understand too much the attraction, how they came together or why they shared a stint of time but at the end I really really felt like I understood why they split and went back to the white folk paradigm. I thought the black guy was onto something, the undercurrent of the film kept rearing its ugly head against the background of people white or black or whatever speaking on social civic issues esp. gentrification and I started to realize that the black guy was onto something whilst the black girl, lets face it was in deep denial, yet she began to let go as we the audience began to realize that the black guy was really really really onto something.
I really think the dude that did this, is an excellent writer, great script, I love his directing and I can't wait to see his Baldwin adaptation! I can't wait... This felt a lot as if Baldwin would write a romcom about black people and a script it would be something like this but this didn't have people in jail or jumping off bridges, it was more unfolding the horror of today's gross clandestine hypocritical racist and everything else that is wrong with contemporary society.
