Review of Free State of Jones (2016) by Tom M — 13 Feb 2017

An actual story inspired by true events such as this should be viewed not just for a public rating of enjoyment, but the content and the presentation of facts. As cold and sad as this movie was, it was educational and it forces Americans to view themselves in a different light.

Yes there is a hero character who is white, but the importance of understanding the life of southern people during and post-war is a difficult and hard presentation to create and for many people hard to accept.
