This film is rather stereotypical

This film is based on James Baldwin's novel of the same name. Jenkins is a remarkable sure-handed director and as a result If Beale Street Could Talk is a stunning piece of art. Every frame is exquisite, as the interplay between light and colour adds a dream-like element to a story that is heartbreakingly real.
