1 day ago'Is God Is' is a ferocious, timely tale of misogyny and revenge
A serial abuser assigned the poetically generic name of Man and played by Sterling K. Brown is the source of insurmountable trauma and anguish for many, including and especially his own family. Violence against women and children at the hands of romantic partners or family members is, mercilessly, never not a topical subject. Is God Is favorably calls to mind an assortment of brutal revenge tales and dysfunctional family melodramas with a dash of mystic horror think Thelma & Louise meets The Color Purple meets Eve's Bayou.
