I rated it a rare 10 out of 10 and it is one of my very favorite 2016 films. The cinematography is gorgeous, Edgerton and Negga are superb as Mr and Mrs Loving and it is stunningly and sensitively directed crafted by master filmmaker Jeff Nichols (hope you have his brilliant MUD). I'd also like to give a shout out to Marton Csokas, who is bone chillingly good as the scary, hateful, racist Sheriff Brooks.

I have not seen the new movie Loving yet but I look forward to it.
A year or so ago I saw the documentary The Loving Story (2011) which I thought was wonderful. If anyone has not seen it they really should.

I have MUD in my queue.
GREAT - the EVIL Sheriff's last name is Brooks! That's my last name.
