I'm not sure how a film about such an emotive topic can be so bad. It takes talent to make the degradation and violent deaths many in the CRM faced seem mundane, but it has been done here. Then there's the old tropes to contend with. Innocent white woman won't have sex before marriage, brown bird gets her cookie out without a second thought. Acting, bad! Script, worse! Direction, calamitous! Tropes, ALL OF THEM!
