If you loved Shadowboxer, try The Paperboy
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 Lee Daniels, and they sit in Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Shadowboxer, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Paperboy is
Florida heat hums against a neon motel sign at midnight. A journalist steps off a bus, notebook in hand, to cover a state-ordered execution. Lee Daniels shoots moral rot like a coming-of-age fever dream.
