NewsdayFebruary 17, 2012The gay coming-of-age story's been done, but "Pariah" has something fresh to say, largely about the knotty complexities of love, and how they might keep someone in the closet: How badly do you need to be free, to hurt the people you love?

7M PicturesMay 25, 2012Like Albert Nobbs, Pariah deals with issues of identity and sexuality, though in a vastly different way.
Arkansas Democrat-GazetteApril 29, 2012...evades the formula for coming-of-age films as it announces the arrival of a fascinating new star in the remarkable Adepero Oduye.
