Lighting Dindin (2017)

Chickenhare and the Hamster of Darkness explores true identity through exploration. 

This is not a slavery story, it is a freedom story. The viewers only see Harriet as a slave for the first few minutes of the film. To me, it felt like watching the origin story of a superhero…which is both good and bad.

After years of silence, trauma, and backlash, Rose McGowan tells her own story in this miniseries.

The film didn’t have to be as long as it is. It just dragged on and on with scenes that had no substance. Every so often we get an action scene, and even those isn’t that fun.

Desi’s “straight man” to Lucy’s playful exuberance subverted people’s expectations of what a Latino man could be and added respect and nuance to the way onscreen marriages between men and women were portrayed.

The makings of a great midseason filler episode that would connect in many different directions. This is a police drama filler with a guest director.
