LUCE – Review by Susan Granger

September 9, 2019September 11, 2019 Susan Granger 0 Comments Julius Onah, luce, Naomi Watts, octavia spencer, tim roth

When Luce Edgar’s stern history teacher questions his provocative essay about West Indian radical political philosopher Frantz Fanon and, subsequently, finds a bag of illegal fireworks in his locker, Luce’s reputation is called into question. Parent-teacher confrontations, monitored by the principal, raise pertinent questions about racial identity and prejudice.

LUCE – Review by Diane Carson

August 13, 2019August 18, 2019 Diane Carson 0 Comments J.C. Lee, Julius Onah, luce, Naomi Watts, octavia spencer, tim roth

Director Julius Onah’s Luce trades on the perplexing challenge of accurately accessing character, even in individuals known quite well and occasionally on public display. Add to that a Rashomon factor, that is, the subjective trap for everyone of their own status and personality, and the complications multiply, the film’s audience included as we second guess our own judgments.
