  1. Well, it didn’t turn out to be a white savior story, which was my biggest fear.

    It didn’t turn out to be a coming-of-age story, which I thought it might be.

    And it didn’t turn out to be a richly-photographed visual or soundtrack-feast sonic memoir of 1980 Queens.

    I’m not sure what it was. Focus was needed.

    #ArmageddonTime was disappointing.

    I wish Gray had read and taken inspiration from #JonathanLethem’s #TheArrest for how to tell a story with a naive and desensitized narrator.
