My Review: There are not any words to express how much I loved this movie! I am a very big fan of the production company A24, but found that they had quite a few misses in 2024, but this movie… This is what I think of when I think of A24.

This movie focuses on Divine G, who was imprisoned for a crime he didn’t commit. He is a playwright, a father and a friend to many in the film. He is using theatre as an escape from the reality that he and the other inmates are facing day in, and day out. I could relate to using theatre in this way, and it made me feel seen.

I found that I loved this movie, not only for the theatre aspect, but also for the story told. I knew when I came into this, that many of the character portrayals were done by the people who inspired the characters. This made the film feel so much more personal and revealing.

Would I Recommend This Movie?

Yes! I would recommend this movie to anyone and everyone! It is an inspirational story that made me feel so many feelings! If you have the chance to watch it, please do!
