Moonlight Review - Devastating Drama Is A Vital Portrait of Black Gay Masculinity in America

Benjamin Lee The Guardian
Moonlight is a profoundly moving film about growing up as a gay man in disguise, a difficult and damaging journey that’s realised with staggering care and delicacy and one that will resonate with anyone who has had to do the same. We’re starved of these narratives and Jenkins’ electrifying drama showcases why they are so hugely important, providing a rarely seen portrait of what it really means to be a black gay man in America today. It’s a stunning achievement.
