I saw this movie this arvo. It was rivetting. Interesting that a couple of the leading roles are played by British actors - including the black guy in the early episodes of "Spooks". But no worries, Oprah Winfrey gets a gig. So does Martin Sheen, except that he plays a judge, not the US President.
The movie is about Martin Luther King. See it!

It was the march from Selma to Montgomery that mobilised US public opinion and proved to be LBJs tipping point in introducing his civil rights legislation. This year, 2015, is the 50th anniversary of the historic March from Selma, Alabama, to the state capital Montgomery, so it's appropriate that a movie like this comes out this year.
See it!!
