Fast Color

Ruth has powers she cannot fully control, and once they are noticed, she becomes the target of armed strangers. Having left her family behind years earlier, she has spent a long time moving from place to place without settling anywhere. Now her only option is to go back to the home she abandoned.

Julia Hart directed Fast Color, which she wrote with Jordan Horowitz; it is the second of the six features she has directed, following Miss Stevens and preceding Stargirl, I'm Your Woman, Hollywood Stargirl and Don't Say Good Luck. Gugu Mbatha-Raw plays Ruth, with Saniyya Sidney as Lila, Lorraine Toussaint as Bo and David Strathairn as Ellis, alongside Christopher Denham and Ryan Begay. The film runs 102 minutes and was released in the United States in March 2019.

The film received a critics' rating of 6.9/10 from 88 reviews. On IMDb it holds 6.1/10 from around 7,500 votes, and on TMDB it sits at 6/10 from 236 votes, so audiences rate it somewhat lower than critics do, and the larger IMDb sample is only mildly positive.
