Rating: B -- If the film is both linear... and plainly adoring, it also gives you ample reason for that adoration. You certainly end up admiring Toni Morrison, but also aching to know a bit more about her. Full Review

Two major themes run through TONI MORRISON: THE PIECES I AM -- her deep love of language, and her determination to write from a black cultural perspective, without explaining her culture to the rest of the world.
