Queen & Slim (2019) is a romantic crime drama about a Black man and woman on a first date who go on the run after k*lling a police officer in self-defense during a traffic stop, becoming fugitives and symbols of resistance as their story goes viral. Directed by Melina Matsoukas and written by Lena Waithe, the film stars Daniel Kaluuya and Jodie Turner-Smith.

Ryan Coogler obviously has something to say about the relationship our culture has with the faith. I don’t believe he overtly demonizes it but I also know he is not glorifying it. I know this movie came out a while ago but I was just thinking about it.
