Quote:
"[The Photograph is] a love story. A groovy, romantic love story where the two main characters have tremendous chemistry and Black love is fully on display. Michael (Lakeith Stanfield) is a feature writer for The Republic, an online magazine and Mae (Issa Rae) is a curator at the Queens Museum. From the very beginning, it's clear that these characters know how to spar in a sexy way, evidenced on their first date when they discuss music. She likes Drake, he doesn't. He likes Kendrick, she doesn't."
