The Color Of Honey

About This Movie

So, 'The Color Of Honey' is this quirky little gem from 1987 that dives into the offbeat dynamics of a couple's relationship. Blake's wife, Barbie, is not your typical housewife—she's got a fierce passion for pool and a rather refreshing take on sexuality, embracing her desires with a playful ease. The film has this raw, almost gritty atmosphere, with a vibe that cleverly balances humor and sensuality. You see Barbie not just owning the pool table but also challenging gender norms, and there’s this palpable tension throughout that keeps you invested. It's definitely not polished, but its charm lies in its unfiltered approach to themes of love and freedom.

This title remains somewhat obscure, which adds to its appeal among collectors; it’s not easy to find. The VHS and DVD releases are limited, making them a topic of interest for those who appreciate niche cinema from the 80s. It’s one of those films that, while it may not have the broad recognition, definitely sparks conversation among those who stumble upon it.
