If Beale Street Could Talk by James Baldwin
2.0
Bahni Turpin is always excellent as a narrator. However, I did not enjoy the writing. Character development was nonexistent and the foul language was disturbing.
The movie was much better. I give the movie four out of five stars. The ending was different from the book, which is why I subtracted a star. The other irregularity in the movie is the characters did not match the descriptions in the book. I highly recommend the movie.
