Review of Salma (2014) by Rex Reed for Observer — 17 Dec 2014
As vital as it is, racial strife is a subject that cries out for a more volatile treatment than this. The Alabama marching sequences and resulting violence, filmed in Selma, where they actually happened, are too understated for my taste.
And the home life of King and his vacillating wife Coretta are muted.
