My short, badly composed summary is that it examines the interconnectedness of oppressed peoples which goes far beyond just racism. But it also tells a very human story about things that happen in life.
#AunjanueEllisTaylor was absolutely incredible in the lead role, but there are also so many amazing actors supporting her.
#AvaDuVernay has really made an incredible movie. #Origin #OriginTheMovie #AMCScreenUnseen 2/2
For my second time at #AMCScreenUnseen last night, the movie turned out to be #Origin #OriginTheMovie , which was my guess as to what we'd be seeing. I'd heard a little about it and had seen the trailer and was interested in seeing it, but I knew it was going to be heavy.
I was wrong. It was brutal. There are so many layers to this film that it leaves you with a lot to think about. 1/2
