This wasn’t an easy decision, but we’re incredibly proud of what we achieved in that time, and are grateful for the experiences and opportunities that came our way.

What we think

It’s a compelling commentary on race, gender and class in 1920s Harlem - but the ideas here have never stopped being relevant.

What others think

Hall emphasises the moral grey area by shooting in black and white, an ingenious choice that allows her to light Clare as black or white, depending on who she’s interacting with.
Simran Hans The Guardian
Hall’s reflective and challenging film is formally stripped back and places much of the emotional heavy lifting on the shoulders of its two formidable leads.
David Jenkins Little White Lies
Rebecca Hall has long been an actor of poise and grace, and she takes those traits behind the camera for her striking directorial debut.
