Bingo. People hate to admit it yet their actions says otherwise.

The Idea of respecting yourself period...is disrespectful. That's how I think the movie contributes to the larger narrative of how they try to separate us all by teaching us that we need to follow what other people say, and not our gut.

I went to the theater alone to see this movie (Yes, I'm a loner). There were only four ppl in attendance, five including myself. 5 black ppl sat in a dark movie theatre, completely void of outside sound/noise, anticipating the characters next move until their demise. 5 ppl remained seated after the credits were shown, and although I'm not sure why we all remained seated, I believe it was bc we all had to digest a film so brutally honest that it was mentally draining and emotionally painful. This is our truth. This is our pain. I'm going back to see it again. #queen&slim

[@jeremywyche5494]

Jodie is a star she reminds me of Naomi Campbell just beautiful. She gave a beautiful debut performance. Those scenes of her and Daniel in the club dancing and the cinematography in the film was just gorgeous. Daniel throughout the entire movie was outstanding but the final scene of the movie. He did so much acting with his eyes was so Oscar worthy. I was really blown away by the film.

[@s.k.7864]

Jeremy Wyche yes, his eyes told a story beyond the film. It was beautiful

I didn't know that Jodie is also British. She and Daniel played the hell out of these characters. I told a friend that I don't think I've ever seen Blackness portrayed so beautifully on screen before. Another friend told me that the film "is lush with Blackness."

This movie IS one of the BEST movies I've ever seen in my entire 33 years of existing. I'm from South Central LA and you feel connected to the story from my own experiences. The movie deals with the times we live in and what African Americans go throw on an everyday basis with police brutality...if you're scared of Black people don't become a cop. It's REAL RAW AND GRITTY... IT'S JUST BLACK. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

I saw this film today. It rocked me to the core of my bones. It is excellent on so many levels. I laughed too many times to count and literally cried (I’m not a crier). It felt amazing to see black love appear and deepen beyond the ordinary pigeon hole. The beautiful landscapes, the music, the depth and layers of meaning, the metaphors, the reverence of black life and love, twists and turns, hope ... I’m f-ing shook.

If it wasn’t for these interviews we wouldn’t even know homeboy was a Brit so y’all can chill with the black Brit vs black American experience. Daniel did what needed to be done which was giving this story and this character life

[@musicaltheatergeek79]

The point is that many Americans are losing roles to foreigners because there's been an anti-America bias in Hollywood this decade; far-left politics have infiltrated the industry. And for African-Americans, who have always fought/struggled to land plum roles, it is a disgrace to see foreigners taking their roles and telling their stories. Other countries protect their own homegrown actors, but SAG-AFTRA (TV/film) has been doing a lousy job in the US. One thing I'll say for Actor's Equity (theater), they do a better job at protecting American actors.
