“Queen & Slim” Exceeds Box Office Expectations
Everyone’s buzzing over devastatingly beautiful movie-of-the-moment “Queen & Slim” about well-moisturized lovers on the run after killing a cop in self-defense that shattered expectations with a $15.8 million opening weekend while fueling mostly positive reactions across social media.
Carried on the worthy shoulders of Oscar-nominee Daniel Kaluuya (Slim) and stunning newcomer Jodie Turner-Smith (with direction from visionary Melina Matsoukas and a script by polarizing Emmy-winner Lena Waithe), “Queen & Slim” simmers with gorgeous gusto, heart-piercing dialogue and cruel realities about “post-racial” America that launched the critically-acclaimed ndie gem into the mainstream conversation.

This line from #QueenandSlim shouted me: “Why do black people always feel the need to be excellent? Why can’t we just be ourselves”? A word, family. We are enough.
