The Feast of All Saints is an adaptation Ann Rice's novel of the same name. The movie was broadcast as a mini-series via ShowTime back in 2001 and covers an intriguing subject:
Set in nineteenth-century New Orleans, the story depicts the gens de couleur libre, or the Free People of Colour, a dazzling yet damned class caught between the world of white privilege and black oppression. The film stars James Earl Jones, Jennifer Beals, Gloria Reuben, Victoria Rowell, Jasmine Guy, Ruby Dee, Robert Richard, Nicole Lyn and Bianca Lawson. What's nice about this story is we get a rare look at biracial/mixed people in that period. The accents sound cheesy at times, but overall the movie is worth a watch. Beals, Lyn and Lawson have quality scenes together, perhaps some of the most poignant. I especially enjoyed the ballroom dance scenes and classical music soundtrack which aren't often accompanied in most black films.

We see a lot of soul-searching, inner reflection, and spirituality in Eat Pray Love, but it is a rare moment when we actually experience it. I never read Elizabeth Gilbert‘s bestselling novel about her meditative excursion, but I can imagine the author acts like a cipher for wish-fulfillment as we reflect about our own personal life.
In Ryan Murphy‘s adaptation, co-written by Jennifer Salt, we are given Julia Roberts, a charming but ultimately flat character that is difficult to invest in. It’s almost a wonder with such a prolonged runtime and Roberts in every single scene, we never really connect to her beyond us enjoying what she is enjoying; the food, the sights, and the fantastic supporting cast of men. Thankfully, those three areas deliver consistently and I actually found myself in a guilty state of enjoyment throughout most of the film.
