‘Love, Brooklyn’ Review: André Holland, DeWanda Wise & Nicole Beharie Lead Rachael Abigail Holder’s Brooklyn Love Triangle — Sundance Film Festival


Director Rachael Holder's feature debut uses the evolving streets of Brooklyn for a tender love letter to the borough about letting go.

Meanwhile, she references Black creatives like James Baldwin and Henry Ossawa Tanner leaving the U.S. for a “slightly less racist France,” seemingly foreshadowing a potential option for aimless Roger. Similarly, Roger struggles with accepting the new Brooklyn for all its wonders and faults, a beautifully effective metaphor for the act of letting go and embracing the good in life as he navigates a love triangle with two women he cares for deeply. Dramatic Competition) Director: Rachael Holder Screenwriter: Paul Zimmerman Cast: André Holland, Nicole Beharie, DeWanda Wise, Roy Wood Jr., Cassandra Freeman, Cadence Reese Sales Agent: Creative Artists Agency Running time: 1 hr 37 min
