Suffrage

I stumbled upon this ambitious indie one night: feminist one liners, old school raunch, political conspiracy, and a loose reference to Altman's "The Long Goodbye?" Yes, please!

The story revolves around Private Investigator Natasha Hall (played by Cat Black), hired to investigate a series of murders surrounding reclusive actress Rebecca Lyonne. In the true spirit of classic PI films, Natasha uncovers a cast of quirky characters as she traverses Los Angeles in an attempt to solve the murders -- all while working on her relationship with reporter Bobby Hoffman (Director Joe Black).

Hall's performance calls to mind some of the best moments of character actor Merritt Wever and carries the film throughout.

It's a fun ride across the City with intrigue, fart jokes, political references and Eric Roberts thrown in for good measure! Worth a watch!

This delightfully eccentric film offers a refreshing perspective on contemporary issues, featuring veteran actor Eric Roberts. "Suffrage" follows the adventures of the down-on-her-luck private eye, Cat Black, as she unravels the connections between a surge in crimes and a reclusive famous actress. What sets this movie apart is its refusal to conform to pretentious trends-it's a fun and quirky ride that kept me thoroughly engaged. Acknowledging its flaws, including slightly forced dialogue and a somewhat predictable storyline, the film still manages to entertain and it pays off, leading to moments of genuine laughter. Cat Black, portrayed by Natasha Hall, delivers a commendable performance, and Eric Roberts brings his signature charm to the screen.

The story develops with a speed of lightning. I recommend watching this movie twice in order to enjoy every detail in the plot.

The film raises important political and social issues but wraps them up in a light-hearted comedy, so it never gets preachy. Moreover, the movie allows us to get a glimpse into the colorit of Southern Californian life.

Suffrage is a sequel to the 2021 movie Natasha Hall. This time a private investigator, Natasha Hall, is trying to solve the murder of the mother of one of Hollywood's most famous actresses, Rebecca Lyone.

Cat Black who plays Natasha Hall is wonderful and charismatic, and I think she can play absolutely anything: from character comedy to psychological drama.

I enjoyed this film because it didn't attempt to be too cool for school or rely on esoteric clap-trap. It was a fun, quirky movie that kept me engaged. I stumbled upon it while scrolling through a streaming service and thought, "Why not?" Unlike many big-budget films that have bored me within the first 15 minutes, Suffrage held my interest.

Sure, there were some issues. The dialogue felt a bit forced, the pacing was a tad slow, and the storyline was somewhat disjointed, yet predictable. And you could pretty much anticipate where it was heading. However, if you stick with it, you'll be rewarded with a good amount of laughs.

Cat Black delivered a solid performance in the title role of Natasha Hall, while Eric Roberts played his usual type of character, as he often does in his later films. Ron Thompson added humor, and the rest of the cast performed adequately.

In summary, Suffrage is a delightful indie film. Is it a tour de force in filmmaking, no. It really doesn't have to be. Sometimes you just want to suspend disbelief and roll with it. There's enough genuinely cool laughs in to make it worth your time.

This film is just terrific! I really enjoyed it! I enjoyed the full range of the characters. They were a hoot! Whoever did the casting did a wonderful job. I though all the cast was very well suited for their roles. I very much enjoyed Natasha Hall played by Cat Black. Cat Black was excellent in this role. She was very convincing and was the glue that held everything together in my book. I enjoyed Eric Roberts character too but I've always been an Eric Roberts fan. The pacing was good in this film. This goes to the credit of writer/director Joe Black who also played Bobby Hoffman in the film. The film moved along at a nice clip and never hit any flat spots in my book. This one gets a solid thumbs up from me!
