    Selma

    The Civil Rights Movement and Dr Martin Luther King Jr are brought back to life on the big screen

    6 February 2015

    Historical Drama
    Director Ava DuVernay
    Starring David Oyelowo, Carmen Ejogo, Tom Wilkinson, Cuba Gooding Jr, and Oprah Winfrey

    What To Expect
    The story takes place during the time Dr Martin Luther King Jr leads the voting rights protest campaign. Selma is not a story just about Martin Luther King Jr, it’s about the community involved in the civil right movement. It focuses on the march, which took place from Selma to Montgomery, for change – and to be included in the voting process.

    Quotes
    ‘That means protest! That means march! That means disturb the peace! That means jail! That means risk! That is hard!’- Martin Luther King Jr

    ‘We will not tolerate agitators’ attempts to orchestrate a disturbance in this state.’ – George Wallace

    ‘Selma’s the place and they are ready.’ – James Bevel

    ‘What happens when a man stands up and says, “Enough is enough”?’ – Martin Luther King Jr

    What The Critics Say
    ‘It’s a movie concerned with the march, and its most nimble work is in illuminating scenes rather than trying to explicate them.’ – Philadelphia Weekly

    ‘Needless to say, Dr King’s message has never been more relevant.’ – US Weekly

    ‘Selma presents a multidimensional portrayal of Dr King, flaws and all, and it makes us wonder how far we’ve actually come today.’ – Orlando Weekly
