I could listen to Barry Jenkins speak all day long. He seems so knowledgeable about his craft.

[@kudabeen]

Love when Black Women and people shine like this and can speak on their art and technical acumen so fluidly in a great space...it is growing and growing...They entire room is shining

[@stessieegouy]

Stephen's smile in the movie is everything 😍

[@jazmin1606]

Barry Jenkins really one of the best directors ever

[@maliquemorris123]

Stephan James and KiKi Layne are breathtakingly beautiful

[@Igbogadi]

I just saw this movie today and I can not stop thinking about it. I saw Moonlight twice. And I think I'm gonna see this twice too. I can't shake it. It's so beautiful. Barry Jenkins with James Baldwin is a masterpiece!!

[@pritthorn37t13]

I just saw this movie tonight and it was a beautiful love story... 4/17/19 😊👍🏾

[@Lil08103]

that red glows on her skin. #beautiful

[@indoora]

lime light I'm not being negative but that is because her foundation has the wrong undertone.

@@indoora yes you are stfu

[@armandoucles5346]

Now this movie was a true romantic story. I was so moved by the movie and Stephan James made me want to cry. He's face is so full of expression and Kiki Layne makes me wish I had a woman like her in my life.

[@EmmaLaurijs]

I love his style of movie making, it’s calming to look at. Also Nicholas Britell is a huge blessing. His music is so moving and suits the whole ambiance.

[@dani__crocs]

Stephen and Kiki are going to have amazing careers I'm 100% sure

[@salssalsa]

Me: h- Barry: we didn’t plan the shots

[@Ontrek9]

I love the Build because it brings the Actors to me.

[@trident065]

Kiki is beautiful. Wow.

[@trinibwoy27]

Moonlight is one of my favorite movies of all time and I have a feeling this movie will make me feel the same way

[@lolaispure4296]

Me too

[@peasanttolegend4958]

What a great interview truly looking forward to seeing this film empowerment is needed.

[@lightuponlight6727]

awesome!! Bravo Barry Jenkins! How did you get Lauren Hill on that trailer.... I gotta know!

[@kapurush1965]

"I don't wanna compare myself to this filmmaker, but--" BRUH... KUBRICK WISHES LMFAOOO

[@TØGITR]

Great interview!

[@montez.youtube]

Camilleri led too much with that first question to the actors about director’s attention. Kiki really could only agree and not form her own opinion. His appreciation of Barry seems gratuitous to the point it comes off as ungenuine. I think Barry is the most hyped part of this movie and for good reason but it would have been nice to have better questions for the actors. This would have shown better appreciation for their performances beyond being tools for Barry’s vision.

[@j.jmarlon1417]

Way to kill the experience of Dave franco's cameo.

[@ChrisCarmona]

J.J Marlon nobody made ya watch this bro lmaooo

[@j.jmarlon1417]

Clearly man. But still, that's like telling me what's for dinner, then saying, by the way chef Ramsey made it. Like chill lolz. I know it's a risk.

[@Fiveandime]

yes CLICK UP!! its important

[@kierrabarr9219]

Correction: Yara Shahidi is the biggest James Baldwin fan. Fight me. 👊🏾😂

[@rockyayce6485]

I just don't understand why yall can't never make a love story about us with a happy fucking ending it's always some prison and slave shit

[@shan.tizzle]

Horrible interviewer. Tone def af.

[@Asakhalifshow]

The interviewer was awful!

[@kudabeen]

disagree...he weaved and allowed for them to speak to their work well. Could have had more for Stephan and KiKi, but decent job.

[@YoungLegend07]

He always does such a horrible job. When he interviews Latino Film makers/actors. I still don’t know why they let him interview. I agree 100%. Plus he’s not relatable at all as an interviewer.

[@Arl662]

I’m sorry I wanted to like it but I felt it was overrated, to slow and uneven. I’m sorry everyone I swear I tried to like it

[@dustfreequeen5151]

Arl662 i feel the same way. The actors were great, but the scenes were so long and stretched. I really wanted to like the movie.

[@Arl662]

leah Renee All I like was the cinematography and score which deserve Oscars. Other than that you nailed it

@@dustfreequeen5151 so what?. You obviously didn't read the book.

[@Arl662]

Niqui H Is that my fault?

[@dustfreequeen5151]

Niqui H So what? I didnt like it! You mad?
