Movie Reviews of Boycott
Movie Review: The cast was simply sensational
Summary: 5 Stars
When I first saw this movie, I was taken back back the acting of ALL the actors! Jeffery Wright, really bought it home with his portrayal of King. From the pulpit, to going to jail, and to his home life. This was as like being there from a distance but right up on the action. I love it!!
Summary of Boycott
On december 1st 1955 in montgomery alabama rosa parks refuses to give up her seat in a whites only section of a public bus. This single act helps instigate a wave of righteous rebellion that will make history and make a leader of martin luther king jr. Studio: Hbo Home Video Release Date: 01/25/2005 Starring: Jeffrey Wright Terrence Howard Run time: 113 minutes Rating: Pg Director: Clark JohnsonWhen Rosa Parks was arrested in 1955 for refusing to give up her seat on the bus to a white man, the Reverend Martin Luther King was but a modest young Baptist minister suddenly thrust into the leadership of local bus boycott. What started as a one-day protest of unfair bus laws turned into the 381-day boycott that gave birth to the civil rights movement. This riveting, rousing made-for-cable drama meticulously recounts the challenges the protest faced. Jeffrey Wright (Basquiat) is excellent as King, capturing his charisma and rousing speeches while grounding his heroism in human vulnerability and fear, but Boycott reminds us that he was only one of the thousands of ordinary people roused into extraordinary action in the name of equality and social justice. That portrait of everyday heroes changing the course of history remains the film's most rousing message. --Sean Axmaker
