4.5 stars out of 5 -- Love -- intimate, familial and fraternal -- infuses director Barry Jenkins’ ravishing adaptation of the 1974 James Baldwin novel about a battered romance that refuses to be a tragedy.
Rolling Stone
Based on Baldwin’s 1974 novel of the same name, IF BEALE STREET COULD TALK lushly retells the story of two young lovebirds in Harlem whose life together is jeopardized by a false accusation.
A.V. Club
Rating: 4/5 --
Someone has to find beauty in the prolonged tragedy of Black American life without regurgitating the same pain for the rote spectacle of predominantly white audiences.

Spectrum Culture
In BEALE STREET, Jenkins is inviting you to look deeply at these men and women, to see how they look to, and at, each other. He does this primarily through an expressionist visual style that can make words superfluous.
New York Times
4 stars out of 5 -- Jenkins swaddles the young lovebirds’ burgeoning romance in a ravishing soft-focus shimmer that makes their later meetings amidst the grubby greens of a prison visiting room all the more heartbreaking.
Total Film
Rating: 5/5 --
Jenkins tells unsentimental stories of hardship and injustice. Yet, at the same time, he also evokes romantic and intensely resonant imagery. With one foot in the real and the other in the ethereal, Barry Jenkins has crafted another masterpiece.

Isolated Nation
[An] intensely evocative adaptation of the 1974 James Baldwin novel, set in a remembered New York City with colors that thrum like a Polaroid...
