Sylvie’s Love, it’s been one of the most anticipated films of 2020. Directed by Eugene Ashe and starring an A-list cast, including Tessa Thompson, Nnamdi Asomugha, Aja Naomi King, and Eva Longoria, the film explores Black love and Black excellence — at all levels. Tessa Thompson as Sylvie is one of the big draws of the film, and for good reason.
