Slow, Disappointing, Confusing, Ambitious

See it if you can follow the confusing relationships (even with the family tree enclosed in the program) there is just too much going on.

Don't see it if you want a more polished production with more consistently good actors.

See it if You can overlook the puerile acting. The story is fascinating and deserves to be told. The Trilogy is a vital window into race history.

Don't see it if You want to stay ignorant of this little known time/place/racial divide/laws. The Greenwood Massacre Read more
