Misconceptions

About This Movie

Misconceptions is a curious blend of comedy and drama that tackles some pretty heavy themes with a light touch. The southern setting adds this unique tension as you’ve got a conservative woman, played with a certain earnestness, who feels divinely compelled to step into a situation that challenges her beliefs. The interactions between her and the two gay men, a Jewish doctor and an African-American choreographer, bring a lot of humor but also some poignant moments. The pacing is a bit uneven, but the performances hold it together, especially in those quieter scenes where the characters grapple with their own biases. It stands out for its attempt to blend faith and modern family dynamics, all while maintaining a distinctively quirky atmosphere. It's not your typical comedy-drama, that’s for sure.
