Editor’s Note: *Passing* (2021) encapsulates the essence of drama with a personal flair. Rebecca Hall’s direction ensures the narrative remains focused, prioritizing character development over mere spectacle. The performances, particularly by Tessa Thompson, Ruth Negga, and André Holland, add genuine emotional depth to the storyline. With a runtime of just 1 hour and 38 minutes, it unfolds at a deliberate pace, allowing each scene to breathe without dragging on. While the reception has been mixed, the film resonates through its mood and atmosphere. Its tagline, “Nothing is black and white,” effectively captures its thematic essence. If this theme intrigues you, consider adding it to your watchlist.
