Film Noir
Clever film noir with excellent performances that is a paean to Blackness and a critique of Whiteness: Here exposed as preferring misery to happiness if it means going against the unwritten rules of a White supremacist culture.
The only problem is the casting choices that make an important plot point obvious when we actually see the actress cast as the eponymous heroine. This makes us think about the political point being made but removes half of the mystery.
