Nial G @RT70948446 Jul 21 The ending is something else. See more Zed M @RT90205211 12/02/2024 A unique and beautiful film. The ending is near perfect. See more victoria b 09/28/2024 I was deeply moved by Nicki Micheaux's powerful film - it was such an intense and glorious movie. It's about a high school senior whose life is upended by love and violence - it's a romance... it's a psychological thriller... it's a roller coaster. It's based on a real summer... in 1993 "Summer of Violence" in Denver. I loved it. Go see it! See more Read all reviews
