Comments about documentary «Bronx Gothic» (46)
From director Andrew Rossi (Page One: Inside the New York Times, The First Monday in May) comes an electrifying portrait of writer and performer Okwui Okpokwasili and her acclaimed one-woman show, Bronx Gothic. Rooted in memories of her childhood, Okwui - who's worked with conceptual artists like Ralph Lemon and Julie Taymor - fuses dance, song, drama and comedy to create a mesmerizing space in which audiences can engage with a story about two 12-year-old black girls coming of age in the 1980s. With intimate vérité access to Okwui and her audiences off the stage, Bronx Gothic allows for unparalleled insight into her creative process as well as the complex social issues embodied in it.
It’s an excellent film. I feel that it's a movie everybody should watch at least once in their life time.
Well thought out script. Not sure it is a five but better than a four star.
Brilliant! This movie is proof that you don't need all the special effects in the world to make an amazing Documentary movie.
Slow start, but worth watching.
The film is excellent, the acting by both Peter Born and Umechi Born are just fabulous, and the plot is mind blowing.
Enjoyable story and well acted
I dunno why folks panned this movie. It was actually very entertaining to watch. Chad Beck delivers a good movie.
