Kind of Blue

5. Yes, indeed, the real issues confronted by black families

could easily have been dismissed and still be a good story. But bringing those elements in; strength of family, ties with and help from community, unemployment, sorrow, love, the delightful joys and comedy, physical disability together with super power in diverse environments tells a much richer story. The Talk scene was heart-wrenching and well done and had to happen. I'm so glad it wasn't left out and I'd say the heart of the story of a mom protecting her son from the warped perception of some in the world.
