Review of If Beale Street Could Talk (2018) by David Edelstein for New York Magazine/Vulture — 14 Sep 2018
Jenkins and cinematographer James Laxton’s palette is rich and warm, its colors deepened by a score by Nicholas Britell that ranges from a distant, forlorn trumpet to a string quartet in which the players dig in as if they’re having their own dialogue between hope and despair.
The close-ups are immense, the emotions archetypal.
