In this video review, EJ reviews The Photograph, a new romance movie just in time for Valentine’s Day. Join our critic as he talks about what he describes as a “powerful and passionate real look at modern love.” Also, he gushes over the two striking lead stars, as well. Watch the review below, and be sure to head on over to our YouTube channel for more videos and exclusive content…

On Valentine’s Day, Issa Rae (HBO’s Insecure, Little) and LaKeith Stanfield (FX’s Atlanta, Sorry to Bother You) connect in a romance where a woman must learn from the secrets in her mother’s past if she is to move forward and allow herself to love and be loved.

When famed photographer Christina Eames unexpectedly dies, she leaves her estranged daughter Mae Morton (Rae) hurt, angry and full of questions. When a photograph tucked away in a safe-deposit box is found, Mae finds herself on a journey delving into her mother’s early life and ignites a powerful, unexpected romance with a rising-star journalist, Michael Block (Stanfield).
