Review of Things Never Said (2013) by Cheo C — 08 Sep 2013
Things Never Said is a truly excellent film. I know some critic's first reaction is to compare it to Love Jones, but there's room for both films the same way my Blu Collection fits The Godfather and Goodfellas just fine.
This is one of the FEW MUST SEE FILMS OF THE YEAR. The film is written and directed with a poise, wit, and sensitivity that is rare, yet never shies away from letting its main characters be human, flaws and all, for better and for worse.
Shanola Hampton and Omari Hardwick are great, but Elimu Nelson has a true breakout performance as the abusive husband.
