Medicine for Melancholy

I liked this movie & hope the film makers keep at it.

This is a quiet, unsentimental movie that takes its time. Beautifully shot and artfully muted in tone, you can feel the characters thinking and feeling in the silences that punctuate the clusters of dialogue. It is thought-provoking and socially conscious (race, class, gender) without being polemical: a breath of fresh air. You don't have to know San Francisco to like this film, but if you do, so much the better. Leads are perfectly cast.

This might be THE Black indie film, it's amazing and so realistic. Dialogue carries this movie and the cinematography is great, somebody a movie some of us can truly relate to.

This is pre-Daily Show Wyatt Cenac at his peak, as a man stuggling between his race and the culture he lives in. This movie simultaneously and effortlessly examines a wide range of topics and is one of those independent films with a surrealy timeless spin on it. If you have any doubts about this movie I beg you to buy it and put those doubts to rest.
