Review of Selma (2014) by Michael J — 08 Feb 2015
A very powerful reminder of our current politics. Focusing on the social context behind the need for the Voting Act of 1965, Selma delivers a punch to our current day politics. Powerful acting, well paced plot, and a critical examination of MLK Jr.
. Avoiding the common pitfalls of sanctifying our heroes, Selma shows both MLK Jr's stunning character traits as well as his shortcomings.
