#TheBrotherFromAnotherPlanet: Mute space alien who looks like a Black man crash-lands near Harlem and avoids space bounty hunters.
Led by a great Joe Morton perf and stacked cast of character actors, this observational film is mesmerizing, but as tone shifts from wonder to purpose, it loses charm.

"... It's still a pretty 'out there' movie but [Sayles'] 'half in / half out' approach goes someway to explaining the film's shaggy-dog, erratic storytelling."
