Suffrage

This crime mystery satire, gives a fun spin on the this genre of movies. The writing was good, and the characters were all interesting. I liked the locations, and the customs. The humor was unique, as the main protagonist solved the case. It had a great backdrop of music, as the plot thickened. It was a great escape, and it evoked images of the classic film Dragnet. I also thought of Naked Gun at times. It was the first of it's kind the way it combined all of the crime, mystery, and comedy with a political theme, and a woman as the lead character. There were some good set up punchlines, which made for some fun surprises.

The story develops with a speed of lightning. I recommend watching this movie twice in order to enjoy every detail in the plot.

The film raises important political and social issues but wraps them up in a light-hearted comedy, so it never gets preachy. Moreover, the movie allows us to get a glimpse into the colorit of Southern Californian life.

Suffrage is a sequel to the 2021 movie Natasha Hall. This time a private investigator, Natasha Hall, is trying to solve the murder of the mother of one of Hollywood's most famous actresses, Rebecca Lyone.

Cat Black who plays Natasha Hall is wonderful and charismatic, and I think she can play absolutely anything: from character comedy to psychological drama.

I enjoyed this film because it didn't attempt to be too cool for school or rely on esoteric clap-trap. It was a fun, quirky movie that kept me engaged. I stumbled upon it while scrolling through a streaming service and thought, "Why not?" Unlike many big-budget films that have bored me within the first 15 minutes, Suffrage held my interest.

Sure, there were some issues. The dialogue felt a bit forced, the pacing was a tad slow, and the storyline was somewhat disjointed, yet predictable. And you could pretty much anticipate where it was heading. However, if you stick with it, you'll be rewarded with a good amount of laughs.

Cat Black delivered a solid performance in the title role of Natasha Hall, while Eric Roberts played his usual type of character, as he often does in his later films. Ron Thompson added humor, and the rest of the cast performed adequately.

In summary, Suffrage is a delightful indie film. Is it a tour de force in filmmaking, no. It really doesn't have to be. Sometimes you just want to suspend disbelief and roll with it. There's enough genuinely cool laughs in to make it worth your time.

Allen & Burns. Bogart & Bacall. Tracy and Hepburn. Now add Cat Black & Joe Black to that list-the new husband and wife duo for the 21st century audience. Suffrage conveys a dedication to the art of filmmaking, while paying an homage to those who aren't afraid to push the envelope artistically, putting the love of the craft first and letting the audience decide for themselves what the movie means to them. Being creative means opening yourself up to vulnerability, being misunderstood, being able to laugh at yourself and the world, and having a willingness to believe in what you are doing in spite of those around you. In my interpretation, Joe and Cat hit the nail on the head. Suffrage is life. So why not have fun along the way.
