If you’ve seen If Beale Street Could Talk then you know that it’s one of the most original love stories ever put on the big screen.
The film focuses on Tish Rivers (KiKi Layne), a 19-year-old pregnant woman whose life long friend and now fiancé, Fonny (Stephan James) has been imprisoned for a crime he did not commit.
As we follow Tish and Fonny’s love story, we also see the efforts of Tish and her family to prove Fonny’s innocence as the young couple struggles to keep their love alive through near impossible circumstances.
