    "Michael" (LaKeith Stanfield - who has great taste in coats/jackets) is a journalist who travels to interview a man who has just lost his wife. During his visit to the man's home he spies a photograph of a girl taken by Chanté Adams ("Christina"). Once back in New Orleans, he tries to track down more work from this photographer and that introduces him to "Mae" (Issa Rae), the assistant curator at a gallery with whom he falls in love. The remainder of this rather ponderous tale takes us through their pretty ordinary courtship and involves a touch too much coincidence for me - in the end it just ends up being a slightly quirky love story with competent performances from the two lead actors. At times the soundtrack is wonderful - soulful and melodic jazz typical of the Louisiana location but otherwise this is just an unremarkable 100 minutes.
