grandma's million dollar scheme: a comedy-drama

What I liked

Honest, self-reflection.

What I didn't like

The lighting effect was at times distracting

My overall impression

In the era of 20-second clips and media partisanship, this 70-minute monologue provides the audience a humor-filled look at the societal struggles with stereotyping others, justification of greed, and the race to empty achievements. The relatable characters are more likely reflective of the director’s experience than imagination, while the anticlimactic ending is more of a detour from the more lengthy and tortuous reality. I must confess that there is a bit of every character in all of us, yet we may all want to lean towards Leroy’s spirit.
