Some More Films

I don't watch most of the "in" shows and movies, but the free platform Kanopy and a free month of Amazon Prime has helped me to see a few things. Past Life seems to be ready for a bigger reveal than it provides, but looking past stereotypical plot devices, it was a good film overall based partially on real events (e.g., there is such a diary). A Luv Tale looks like the first episode or half of a never completed t.v. project [ends with a cliffhanger], but it was a good find (on Amazon Prime) with black lesbian/career/etc. themes. Yes, that's the woman from The Closer. Pink Grapefruit is a nice short film about a fix-up. Interracial aspect taken in stride. Swing Away was cute. Nice to see Shannon Elizabeth get some decent work.
