Miss Juneteenth

Nicole Beharie is in almost every scene and she carries the film with ease.

...a beautifully observed and quietly powerful drama that applies its coming-of-age tropes to children, parents and politics alike.

Inspiring tale of a beauty-pageant mother's dreams.

It's hard to watch her struggle -- and even harder to see how her own poverty conspires against her...

Real portrayal of love and struggles.

...remarkable, warm, and sometimes delicately sad...
