Plot Synopsis: Sylvie has a summer romance with a saxophonist who takes a summer job at her father’s record store in Harlem. When they reconnect years later, they discover that their feelings for each other have not faded with the years.
What do you all think of the trailer? I had the privilege of being able to see this one at Sundance and thought it was a very lovely movie with a nice throwback to classic romance films of the 50s and 60s. It’s also refreshing to see Tessa Thompson carry a movie on her shoulders to this degree and she’s excellent in the movie. Will be a Best Costume Design Oscar contender.
