Selma (film critique) By Cesar Reyes

We have all grown up being taught about Dr Martin Luther King Jr. And how he helped lead the civil rights movement. The movie Selma gives you a different insight into what kind of man he was. His personal struggles, fears, and what motivated him. You will see a man who has a heavy cross to carry, but who chooses to carry it even though he doesn't have to. The movie Selma is a good movie, and it's sad that the country went through this type of injustice at one time. The movie is not exactly historically accurate in its portrayal of every detail of its events , but I do believe that the goal that director Ava DuVernay was trying to accomplish was to tell the story of a man and the struggle of a people who wanted what was guaranteed to all Americans.
