Review of Selma (2014) by Michael C — 19 Feb 2015

I've said this many times about biopics based on significant historical figures... sometimes, a feature-length movie isn't enough to do their true-life character justice. Maybe producers should consider an HBO mini-series perhaps.

Of course, having said that, there are exceptions to this. "Selma" serves as a great snapshot of the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr, but I'd have been keen to see a whole series highlighting more than just one part of the man's story.

Oyelowo definitely delivers an Oscar-worthy performance.
