Selma
Rated PG-13
Reviewed at Celebration North Theatre
with Lynne
4 out of 5 Js in QUIET Rating System |
After seeing Selma, which is an Oscar contender, Lynne and I felt this was a stirring depiction. I have to admit, I will look at the great Martin Luther King (MLK) in another light. This film does a spectacular job telling King's story. We don't get the true picture of MLK as we have been taught. I think schools should go so far as to show this movie when studying him. MLK wanted to make change, but always through peaceful means. The adversity he faced is unbelievable, but he stuck to his principles in spite of idiots like Alabama's Gov. Wallace. Thank goodness Wallace was never elected president after his four attempts. See this one and let me know what you think.
