Pieces of a Dream

This is an extremely interesting story and the actor who plays Coop is about as good as anybody I've ever seen. The way the different stories were told and how they are separate, and yet coincide, was also interesting. To see this movie is to like it a lot. The story flows to the point that you don't feel you're watching a film. I recommend it.

You'll see some very good performances and some thought-provoking ideas. I'm still thinking about what the film had to say, and I was completely entertained. All of us must choose sides in the battle between good and evil; there's no middle road. We are shown a good illustration of this fact. Worth seeing.

The actors in Pieces of a Dream deliver dynamic performances. Skee Skinner pulled it off. This film has a great deal of symbolism, which hopefully will jump start the movement of conscious films being produced again. The ending was totally unexpected and still stays with me. The artist seemed to be a simple character that many can identify with. Coop is the real deal! This guy reminds me of the Nino Brown character in New Jack City from the 90's. Golden had a troubled past which I thought she had gotten over when she became an adult and mother. But like many issues we face in the world today the problems of society came knocking at her door. All in all, this is a film that is a must see. Way 2 go!

Pieces of a Dream is a film that makes you think. It put some things into perspective for me personally. There were questions in my mind that I thought only I thought about and Pieces of a Dream attempted to answer some of those questions. I cared about each character and related to them in one way or another. I am a single mother so the character I related to the most was the single mother raising her two boys. Some of the issues that the young mother had are some of the same issues that I deal with myself (in one way or another). I really enjoyed this film and would recommend it to everyone. In my opinion, adults and teens alike will benefit from watching this film. Kudos to everyone involved with bringing this very important piece of art to life.

This is a film about the true Nature of all People. Though it focuses through an African American lens, showcasing some of the struggles that many of us contend with on a daily basis, Skee Skinner has directed a truly unique, universally understandable work. The difference between this and so many other countless "urban" dramas lies in the central question that this film poses: 'Does sin have weight?' Not only does this cryptic question anchor the film, it manages to plant seeds in the minds of the audience members about the states of their own lives. People from all walks of life will find some way to relate to at least one character in this film, and be completely understanding of their actions. On a technical note, some of the cinematographic choices made little sense to me initially, however, the overall through line of the film is quite non-linear, and as such, those initial 'hmmm's' begin to dissipate like "his use of the color red." This is an intelligent film that underscores the lives of not only the Hip-Hop generation, towards whom so much ignorant media is targeted lately, but also to our parents, and grandparents who have survived decades only to watch the deterioration of a people. This Film strives to speak against all of that negativity by offering positive alternatives. How, when, and what they are is left for you to decide.

An engrossing film that touches several peoples lives and weaves them together in a compelling tale of drama and morality. Skee's One way productions creates and movie full of character and weight that sticks to you and takes you along for an incredible ride. Having the opportunity to meet an watch the movie with the team that created it makes you understand how hard they worked to bring their labors to fruition. Skee should be commended for the casting and the great group he assembled to bring his story to life. The dedication and artistry of their writing and the ability for rich storytelling makes this film shine. Great Story Great Film. I highly recommended.
