Columbus (2017)

Not for everyone,
Photography as central
As story and plot.
In Columbus, Ohio,
Unlikely friendship.
Through a shared eye for beauty,
Each lets go of ghosts.
Harold with no White Castle,
A good performance.
Richardson’s is far better,
Authentic, heartfelt.
Serious roles, solemn film.
Gorgeous building shots,
Architecture lover’s dream.
A pleasant soundtrack,
Perfect in its subtlety.
Some might be bored but
Like browsing an art museum,
The long silences
Are for reflection and thought.
Might be slow at times,
A few plot holes and loose ends,
But worth the sensual escape.
