Speechless (2015)

Poor Black characters are usually surrounded by crime and violence, while poor White characters are portrayed as noble and hard-working.

That gut-wrenching feeling you have while watching it is okay but needed, and you, the viewer, will be okay.

Like millions around the world, I've been waiting four years for the renowned #SnyderCut. I'll never forget sitting in the theater on opening night, witnessing a CGI mouth on Henry Cavill's face about five seconds into Justice League. That's a thing of nightmares if I must say. Anyways, right then and there, I knew I desperately needed Zack Snyder's film.

Praising Black representation and condemning the power structures that suppress it, a mother delivers an impassioned speech to her distant son.

This Christmas movie gives viewers a friendship that unexpectedly forms from a plane trip.

The film illustrates the life of a single who struggles to provide an ideal childhood for her two daughters.
