...telling Fonny's family about the new baby.

Everything about this scene was a great lesson in directing.
Loved the sister hinting at "wanting to tell the sisters", so we're already set.
We immediately understood the personalities of Fonny's family as
soon as they sat down.

Aunjanue Ellis, who played Mrs. Hunt was fantastic.

Cinematographer James Laxton (who also shot Moonlight) was fantastic.
Every shot had a colorful purpose.
In fact, the team work of the set designer and wardrobe
really made this film shine.

I really need to see it again.
