This movie was stunning. The message. The prison industrialization. The mental health aspect. The love. I love Tara. She is the GOAT wife and mom. The last few minutes had me in tears. It was intense See more Tony T @RT46728666 9h Newborn follows a man, played by David Oyelowo, dealing with life after seven years in solitary confinement. It does a strong job highlighting PTSD and the lasting effects of trauma, while also tackling systemic racism in the justice system and how Black men are disproportionately treated. The film starts grounded but shifts into a psychological thriller, giving off vibes similar to The Shining and Get Out. While the message is powerful, the writing lacks clarity at times and sets up moments that don’t fully pay off. It had the potential to be great, but falls just short. Still, it’s a compelling and worthwhile watch that I can recommend. See more Read all reviews
