While attending the 2023 Marina del Rey Film Festival, I had the privilege of viewing the film "Meeting Ms. Leigh" (Grand Jury Prize Winner for Best Film). From the opening scene to the final credits, I truly enjoyed this charming and intuitive love story. Similar to "Island in the Sun", "Meeting Ms. Leigh" focuses on the life and aspirations of a charismatic African American man named Carter. Looking for a muse to stimulate the writing process for his new screenplay, Carter meets Amber, an older white woman, who is escaping a failing marriage. As their intellectual and sensual frolic becomes something more grim, decision have to be made. And, from that point on, the film becomes dangerously amusing. Due to the wonderful storytelling, amazing music and powerful acting performances, it is hard to believe that "Meeting Ms. Leigh" is R. S. Veira's first feature film. But it is and he has a true talent for the art form which promises to make his future in the entertaintmnet industy, extrmeily bright.
