MALCOLM & MARIE (2021) is written & directed by Sam Levinson and produced by Ashley Levinson. I was intrigued by the trailer and was rather excited to see this film because it starred two young and up-coming actors of color in Zendaya and Johnson David Washington.

Upon watching, I found an interesting film presented in black and white, which was a refreshing look. The premise of the film, as I watched, developed organically as the relationship depicted. Furthermore, as the drama progressed, I felt closer to the characters played extremely well by both actors.

In the End: MALCOLM & MARIE I found it to be an entertaining dramatic film with promising acting portals. So for this film, I give it 3.5 of 5 stars.
