Is God Is was PHENOMENAL!!! And it’s an all Black Cast. A Black woman writer & Director with an original story. Very very very important y’all go to the theatre to watch & support.
I will be doing a full review on my YouTube so we can discuss more!
Everyone tuning into “Is God Is” this weekend, correct????? Correct??? Not a reboot or remake, directorial debut of a Black woman director and writer adapting from her play. The new films we say we want from Black filmmakers, yes???
The director of "Is God Is", Aleshea Harris, spoke about the message she wants to leave with the film
“I hope it is a reminder that anything is possible in narrative; that it is a reminder that all Black folks — especially, and including, Black women — belong in any kind of story. There are no limits to what we can do.
I also hope that it holds the door open for the other weird — I consider myself a weirdo — other people who have a weird, quirky thing that we haven't quite seen before; the other people who are ambitious and playing with tone in some of the ways that I did.
I hope that they can point to Is God Is and be like, ‘See? That was the thing that hopefully worked,’ you know?”
Papa Was a Rollin’ Stone is a 12:05 minute long song. It’s not until 3:53 that you hear someone sing a word. Labels are not letting bands cook like this on the intro anymore and we are losing!!!
