Review of Moonlight

Moonlight (I) (2016)
7/10
Little / Chiron and Black
3 February 2017
Warning: Spoilers
The story is divided in three parts.

First part introduces us to "LITTLE", a young boy who tries not to face his abusive crackhead mother. When he's helped by a drug dealer, in figurative way he finds his missing father and family.

The second part introduces us to "Chiron", a quiet teenager and withdrawn, without friends, who is struggling the same problems. He's been a bully in school since early age and now bullies became even harder after he is homosexual suspected.

The third part introduces us to "Black, unlike first two parts, now he is a different person. A drug dealer who lives in Atlanta ...

The Best thing about this movie is acting. In first two part as Little and Chiron, acting was fantastic. While Naomi Harris was extraordinary and thought she's gonna win Academy Award until I saw Viola Davis on Fences.

Cinematography was great, great shots, great picture, great camera work. As a story, it wasn't extraordinary. I couldn't say I enjoyed the movie very much.
