Audience Member Such a moving and powerful story and the acting as superb! Took me on a rollercoaster ride and the ending was so satisfying Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member This may possibly be the best, most ballsy faith based film I have ever seen. It's not billed as faith based but it really comes across as one to me. Compelling story based on true events. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member An absolutely wonderful film. Everyone involved in this has poured their heart and soul into creating a masterful depiction of this incredible true story. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Heart, Baby! This movie had a story being told by some of the greatest. It is a story of true friendship. Crystal (Shawn-Caulin Young) embodies living life on her own terms and not giving in under the circumstances of being misunderstood and hated for just being. It will open some minds as to how we need to treat people and start a conversation no matter what your beliefs or opinions are. The true story is better than expected. I can't wait to see it again. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Moving and heartbreaking true story. Angela Shelton gets wonderful performances by her entire ensemble, from Shawn-Caulin Young's star making performance as Crystal to Gbenga Akinnagbe (currently on Broadway in To Kill A Mockingbird) as George Lee Martin, down to the smallest role of Nancy Lascala as Mary, as Crystal's mother. A great story of acceptance and love. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Riveting! I am so glad this story made it to the big screen. This true story will take you on an emotional journey and leave you wanting more. A must see! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
