Summary: 5 Stars
This is an excellent movie for the family. I would recommend it to everyone. Great resource for children and teachers.Movie Review: Vivid Re-creation of a Troubled Time
Summary: 4 Stars
This film is a remarkable re-creation of troubled times in Selma, Alabama. Filmed on location in and around Brown Chapel, I believe that some of the interiors were actually shot in the West and Webb apartments near the Chapel. The energy, sincerity and also the violence of this troubled period is well represented. The acting of Jurnee Smollet as the young girl who becomes involved in the movement and Mackenzie Astin as the martyred seminary student Jonathan Daniels is tremendously appealing. The smaller roles are perfectly cast.
The few weaknesses stem from the usual abrupt cuts and fade outs associated with television movie-making.
Movie Review: This is a good documentary
Summary: 4 Stars
As an African-American I am interested in movies about Black history, Black culture, and life during slavery and historical black events.
As a result I purchased about a dozen DVDs on various subject matter which I am just now getting around to viewing.
Selma Lord Selma DVD gave me more insight into the events leading up to the Selma march to Montgomery AL. A number of strong performances by Jurnee Smollett and Clifton Powell in the lead roles.
A lot of good educational information on the voter rights movement in the south.
