"Thank you for bringing us this far… Thank you for this journey… no matter how it ends." Universal has debuted the full-length trailer for the movie Queen & Slim, directed by music video filmmaker Melina Matsoukas, from a screenplay written by the very talented Lena Waithe. The title is a nod to Bonnie & Clyde, about two people who go on the run after an accident. A couple's first date takes an unexpected turn when a police officer pulls them over, but the man then kills the cop in self defense. Terrified and in fear for their lives, the man, a retail employee, and the woman, a criminal defense lawyer, decide to go on the run. Starring Daniel Kaluuya as Slim, Jodie Turner-Smith (from "Nightflyers") as Queen. "Joining a legacy of films such as Bonnie & Clyde and Thelma & Louise, Queen & Slim is a powerful, consciousness-raising love story that confronts the staggering human toll of racism and the life-shattering price of violence." Also starring Bokeem Woodbine, Sturgill Simpson, Chloë Sevigny, and Scott Rapp. This looks so damn good. It's a complex, dangerous concept, but seems to be handled with such deep heartfelt care and concern. ›››
