Summary: 4 Stars
I think all who have seen Sarafina agree it is a powerful movie. What's more, it's beautiful at the same time. Listen to the voices of the choir in this movie. Sarafina started as a musical, and that talent is prevalent in the film version as well. The accapellas are spectacular, and the choir sings in South African fashion. It gives me a chill.I enjoyed seeing Whoopi Goldberg in a dramatic role, versus the comedy shtick she usally does.
Lastly, tt's interesting seeing the conditions that apartheid era blacks lived in South Africa. Thank goodness apartheid is over. I'm glad what we see in this movie is now history!
Movie Review: Sarafina
Summary: 4 Stars
This is an unusual film, an uplifting musical about a dark subject: The Soweto uprising, during which school children opposed the Apartheid government of South Africa. The film also portrays the resulting violent response from the government, and the morally ambiguous choices that must be made on the part of the characters. I would have preferred to see a South African actor in the Whoopi Goldberg role, but then we probably would never have seen the film. And she does a pretty good job. The music is wonderful, and the film is a good introduction to this chapter in South African history. I recommend it.
