SaoirseRonantheAccuser 4 Posted August 25, 2016 Gina Prince-Bythewood is one of the most underappreciated directors working today, and of her three feature films, I'd argue that two of them are flat out great: 2000's Love & Basketball and 2014's Beyond the Lights. Of the two, while I like BtL better and think it has a stronger central performance (Gugu Mbatha-Raw for life), Love & Basketball is probably her more ambitious, accomplished, and beloved work. Excellent as both romance and female-focused coming-of-age, two genres that I think are strongly under-represented on the show, I think Love & Basketbal would make a helluva episode. 1 Share this post Link to post
