Morieris Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 A24 Distribution is hit and miss at our theaters, but if we got Ex Machina, I hope we can get this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cmasterclay Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 So from a few people in the (seeming) know that I follow, this is apparently fucking spectacular. And it looks it, too. I love this cast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCKillswitch123 Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Looks fantastic, as all A24 films tend to. Will this be the #OscarsSoWhite killer that The Birth Of A Nation was supposed to be (alongside Loving)? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Atreides Posted August 28, 2016 Author Share Posted August 28, 2016 Looks fantastic, as all A24 films tend to. Will this be the #OscarsSoWhite killer that The Birth Of A Nation was supposed to be (alongside Loving)? I think it'll be Fences. It's based off of a Pulitzer winner, and it has Denzel and Viola. I do think Moonlight and Loving will get BP noms though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 This looks absolutely amazing. I also like that whoever cut the trailer didn't just put a hip hop soundtrack over it because they thought it was a "black movie." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Atreides Posted September 3, 2016 Author Share Posted September 3, 2016 A from The Playlist: http://theplaylist.net/magnificent-moonlight-chronicles-journey-black-gay-man-america-telluride-review-20160903/ Quote Like “Brokeback Mountain” a decade ago, “Moonlight” is a piece of art that will transform lives long after it leaves theaters. Those who will be changed by the picture may not see it on the big screen. They may even have to see it in secret. But when they do. Whey they watch Chiron Spoiler have that first kiss, when he can be himself for just an instance in a world that oppresses him? It will be everything. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 At most this will probably make as much as Room did so A24 would be wise to treat this with care too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 (edited) this was the first movie they actually financed themselves, everything up to now has been acquisitions. so they'll certainly want it to do well.
