I would strongly recommend folks read the book first. “Half of a Yellow Sun” was written by Nigerian author, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. I hope the new film does the book justice. It’s a complex tale of twin sisters, who choose very different paths, during the Nigerian-Biafran War.
The movie features Anika Noni Rose, who I have a girl crush on 🙂 She is such an underrated actress. She also rarely gets props for being Disney’s first Black Princess:
I bet she will be amazing in this film:
She’s beautiful!
