Review of Selma (2014) by Holly Y — 14 Feb 2015
Emersive and engaging this film should have been getting awards a plenty as David Oyelowo turns out a performance that beats Chiwetel hands down. Ava DuVernay wrote a script that, while not using the classic speeches, invokes the power and belief that moved people to action and MLK to international recognition.
The script is so amazing with some create speeches and inactions between even minor characters. Beautiful and affecting because you understand everyone's motivations.
