Oh... What can I say that hasn't been said already? When you co-relating the events to your own life, it comes as a shock that these battles were fought and won in our lifetime... Some incidents almost seemed like they would belong in another barbaric era. The movie makes an impact. Forrest Whitaker is good but... Oprah is a surprise. Does well. The movie kind of jumps ahead in the end, it could have been shorter by at least half an hour, but eminently watchable all the same. The movie would make a really good history lesson for those who were born much later and want to reacquaint themselves with the civil rights movement they read about in their school books.
