La couleur de l'amour

Loved this movie. The writing and southern houses and greenery and scenery and clothing were great but these two actors are what made the movie so brilliant. Louis Gossett Jr. And Gina Rowlands are so great at making movies that anything they starr in becomes a winner. To see them both side by side caused my heart to bubble up with joy! Their fine acting caused my own life drudgeries to be forgotten by myself getting engrossed in this movie.

I recently watched The Color of Love: Jacey's Story (2000) on Tubi. The storyline revolves around an elderly white woman in the South who hasn't seen her daughter for years due to a high school dispute. Her life takes an unexpected turn when she discovers her daughter has passed away and left a biracial grandchild that needs taking care of. This discovery raises questions about her socialite status, the identity of the child's father, and whether she will decide to keep the baby.

Directed by Sheldon Larry (Leave it on the Floor) and features a talented cast, including Gena Rowlands (The Notebook), Louis Gossett Jr. (An Officer and a Gentleman), Penny Fuller (All the President's Men), Stella Parton (Ragin Cajun) and Michael Harding (Just Mercy).

The Color of Love: Jacey's Story is a heartwarming film with intriguing characters, complex backstories, and compelling situations. Rowlands and Gossett Jr. Deliver captivating performances with great chemistry. The plot offers numerous twists and turns, and while the ending may be predictable, the journey is fascinating and well-executed. The child actors also perform solidly, adding to the film's charm. There's really nothing to dislike about this movie.

In conclusion, The Color of Love: Jacey's Story is an underrated family film that is well worth your time. I'd give it a 7.5-8/10 and strongly recommend it.

This film was excellent. A Southern Widow gets the call every mother dreads "there's been an accident". Imagine her surprise when moments after she finds out her daughter is gone forever, that she has a grand-daughter. At first Granma is all too ready to hand the child off to anyone else, but a twist of fate gives her some extra time with Jacey. Penny Bae Bridges is excellent in the role of a confused, loving little girl and Gena Rowlands as the conflicted southern gentlewoman...... Louis Gossett Jr. was a wonderful(as always) Grampa, so loving to his Granddaughter and so cold to Georgia. And I just loved Stella Parton!

I found this movie today, where has this diamond been hiding? Love that this fact has all topics/issues covered in today's world. It's also refreshing how they all came together to faced their fears and conquered any topic with communication. Even though, topics can be sensitive the writers got this one right. The grandma is an amazing actress along with Lou Gossett as well.

It's movies like these that are prior to 2000 that just proves they don't make them like they used to. This is a movie that will be legendary for years to come. They call these types a sleeper. A diamond that I just found. Enjoy.

Gina Rowlands continues to improve her acting. This is her best performance and would warrant viewing for her alone. Lou Gossett gives his usual fine performance along with the rest of the cast. The director had many opportunities to "ham it" but didn't. Instead he kept the prejudicial responses of all individuals within the realm reason.
