 Morris from America  Quote: Morris from America is a 2016 American-German coming-of-age comedy-drama film written and directed by Chad Hartigan, and produced by Martin Heisler, Sara Murphy, Adele Romanski, and Gabriele Simon. It stars Craig Robinson, Markees Christmas, Carla Juri, Lina Keller and Jakub Gierszał. It is about a 13-year-old boy who dreams of becoming a rapper in an EDM-dominated culture.
It was shown in the U.S. Dramatic Competition section at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival,[1] where Hartigan won the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award.[2] The film was released on July 7, 2016, through DirecTV Cinema prior to opening in a limited release on August 19, 2016, by A24. _________________trixster wrote: shut the fuck up zwackerm, you're out of your fucking element trixster wrote: chippy is correct

Re: Morris From America This was wonderful. Such a charming, funny and crowdpleasing film. Markees Christmas delivers a fantastic breakout performance as the lead but Craig Robinson is best in show here - he's so soulful and likable here and it's a performance that would have gotten attention in a movie with bigger ambitions. I'd highly recommend this. It's one of the biggest treats of the summer. A-

Re: Morris From America So stupid they went VOD with this at the same time as theaters (I saw it theatrically). It could have been a WOM hit.

Re: Morris from America This was ok. It's cool seeing Craig Robinson in a more serious role and the kid is pretty good aswell, but it's so one note IMO. The music/soundtrack is pretty dope though.
