This was a story unlike any other about black love. I was so taken by how beautiful it was to see black love on screen. The storyline was one that made me rush to the bookstore to buy the book. Even though the story was set in the early 1900's, anyone who has ever been in love or believes in love can relate. That brother Michael Ealy is a gorgeous specimen and Halle played her character- Southern accent and all! If This was to ever go to theater it would have easily shared best picture (with Ray)and yes, Halle would have shared the Oscar with Jaimie Foxx. Thank you, Oprah. More, more! I know Zora Neale Hurston must be smiling.....
