Both commanded the screen in every scene they were in. But the actors who stole the show are definitely Naomie Harris as the main character's Mother and Ashton Sanders who played the teenager version of the main character. I was curious as to how they'd tell a full story in three parts but it flowed well and each actor who portrayed the main character, Chiron, added so many nuances. Some of my expectations were not met (Janelle Monae's role) but those minor kinks do not take away from what the film was made to be. I was anxious to see this film but still nervous in hopes that the result would match the hype. This movie is a beautiful piece of art from beginning to end.
