If you loved Friday, try Straight Outta Compton

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by F. Gary Gray, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Friday, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Straight Outta Compton is

South Central LA, summer heat, police sirens. Five young men, honest rhymes, and hardcore beats, frustration and anger in every lyric. F Gary Gray grounds a rebellious origin story.
