The film basically says she was a lost cause from the start. We don't get a sense of who Marilyn was.
This reboot of The Wonder Years is told from the lens of a Black man.
Cassie, a musician, and Luke, a man serving in the Marines, form a false relationship and keep it a secret.
“And I think to myself….what a wonderful world”. Louis Armstrong sang about this notion via his classic 1967 song, an ode to witnessing elements of our life that should be but some reminders of exactly what that concluding line of each verse indicates. Now we see our contemporary realities and, just being honest, it makes a sentiment like this seem SO overtly far away….perhaps even impossible….to accept or believe could be. It sounds harsh, but again, so much of what is occurring speaks not to beauty, but bedlam.
The repeated actions, the blood on the petals, the rustling under the floor…An ambient short horror film takes us into another realm.
