First of all, let me explain this film is not the gritty drama from 2003 starring Charlize Theron as a real-life serial killer Aileen Wuornos. This
Monster was filmed in 2018 and was just released on May 7 through Netflix.
Adapted from the 1999 young adult novel of the same name by African-American author Walter Dean Myers,
Monster is a timely and tragic story centered on a promising, Black, teenage, high school boy in Harlem (Kelvin Harrison Jr.,
Luce, 2019) who is arrested and jailed for a robbery and murder in a neighborhood bodega. As the trial proceeds in a sterile courtroom devoid of color, vibrant and rich flashbacks give clues about the boy s life, his family, and his passion for filmmaking.
