the courts failed to when they were first sen-
tenced. The film focuses on the particular
case of Walter McMillian (Jamie Foxx) who
was accused of murdering a white teenager
and convicted through shoddy and false tes-
timonies. We as the audience learn alongside
Stevenson about the criminal justice system
and its failings when it comes to BIPOC cit-
izens. Stream it on HBO Max or rent it from
Amazon, iTunes, Vudu or YouTube.
“Uncorked” (2020) — The understated
but surprisingly emotional Netflix origi-
nal navigates its quiet blend of comedy and
drama following the story of Elijah (Ma-
moudou Athie), a young man who is caught
between his dreams of becoming a master
sommelier and his father’s (Courtney B.
Vance) expectation that he take over the
family barbecue business. Both are stub-
born and their relationship suffers because
of it, but over time and through tragedy they
come to see things from the other’s perspec-
tive. Stream it on Netflix.
“Waves” (2019) — A gut-punch of a film,
“Waves” changes up the typical cinematic
structure by putting the shocking climax
of the story smack dab in the middle. The
emotional tale centers on a suburban Black
family, specifically the two children, Tyler
(Kelvin Harrison Jr.) and his younger sister,
Emily (Taylor Russell). The first half of the
film is fixed on Tyler, a high school wres-

tling star who is pushed by his father (Ster-
ling K. Brown) to be his best. But a shoulder
injury leads Tyler toward sneaking oxycon-
tin out of the medicine cabinet, drinking
and light drug use, which escalates when he
finds out his girlfriend is pregnant. At the
halfway point, we switch perspectives from
Tyler toward Emily and how she and her
parents navigate the middle climax of the
film, softly and gently coming to terms with
what has happened. It is a beautiful movie
that will make some weep. Stream it on
Showtime or rent it from Amazon Prime,
Google Play, or iTunes.
