#toni morrison
#underrated af
#came out at the wrong time
#ahead of its time
#plus the trauma in this movie is the heaviest I've ever seen for specifically black generational trauma
#the story SPOILERS...
#enslaved black woman played by Oprah
#named Sethe
#murders her infant child born of SA
#is later haunted by a haint/ghost/spectre of the child played by Thandie
#another spooky black southern gothic movie
#that isn't talked about as much as Eve's Bayou
#paul newman said it was the best movie he'd ever seen
#but it was predictably snubbed at the oscars
#tough watch darkly beautiful
#A+ aesthetic and performances
#halloween reflections of blackness
#black american gothic
#the book is better of course
#but the movie is good
