While the pace may seem slow to some, If Beale Street Could talk is bolstered by some powerhouse performances from leads KiKi Layne and Stephan James, as well as strong support from Regina King, Teyonah Parris, Colman Domingo and Michael Beach. Barry Jenkins is an adept at using both light and sound to great effect and the film sends a powerful message that rises above mere injustice to something with much more emotional depth and humanity.
