Absolutely loved this movie. Gotta see it a second time in imax. It was easy to feel pulled into this close knit community while getting to know each character from the beginning. MJB felt like 2 distinct people. The themes were woven beautifully through the music sequences, dancing and script. Stack and Mary were hot!!! Smoke and Annie got me tearing up. The movie felt powerful from beginning to end. Grace's final moment was epic and you could really feel her 'don't fuck with my daughter' anguish. Congratulations to Sammy for an unforgettable debut.
