Doubting Thomas is a 2018 American drama film directed by Will McFadden, starring McFadden, Sarah Butler, Jamie Hector, Robert Belushi, Zach Cregger, James Morrison and Melora Walters.
A Black baby is born to a white couple. The insensitive comments and a busybody co-worker add to the progression of stress on the couple. The swirl of perceptions about race raises suspicions, threatens relationships, and also extracts a secret.
The film was released on 11 October 2019. [1]
John Defore of The Hollywood Reporter wrote that while the script is "uneven", the film is "open-ended enough to acknowledge that the remedies for unacknowledged prejudice are neither easy nor clearly identified." [1]
Bobby LePire of Film Threat gave the film a score of 10/10 and wrote that the "acting is stellar, the writing is honest, and what it says about race, perception, and your true self is sincere." [2]
Carlos Aguilar of the Los Angeles Times called the film a "mostly hackneyed lesson on racial biases desperately stumbling to appear provocative." [3]
