Excellent, Thought Provoking Film

I just saw this at the Morehouse College Human Rights Film Festival. Thanks to Morehouse for sponsoring this wonderful film festival. I urge everyone in the area to attend or to avail themselves of the opportunity to stream the important films offered through this festival.

Honor Student deals with the difficult subject of gun violence in our schools, but eschews using a lot of graphic violence to do this. It is a film of ideas and gives you complex, but unique characters that are carefully developed and provide you with a different perspectives on this serious subject.

The actors are excellent. Kelley Jenrette is just amazingly and so is Hudson Yang (yes, the kid from Fresh Off The Boat). Very strong performances from both and not the expected casting decisions for these parts.

Ms. Miller is an extremely gifted director and I can't wait to see more of her work. Her pacing and camera angle choices are compelling and make for an excellent and exciting film.
