Hope I catch you before you leave. That movie was simply excellent. I liked the story, and the attention to detail was quite good (I noted the changes in hair styles and fashion between the 1790's and the 1800's. Most directors wouldn't do that).

Simply an excellent movie, and one with a lot of things to ponder. I highly recommend it.

Thanks, Jane. I was just about to head out the door, and thought I'd take another peak...I just can't wait to see it again. I do think Wilberforce's conversion experience was somewhat underplayed, but that's about my only qualm. The writers and director make choices, etc.

so glad you found it worth your time and money!

Just now have come inside after cutting back my rose bushes, planting 4 new ones, applying mulch, and weeding one flower bed where the monarda is coming in strong. Whew!

Your highly recommended movie and book, plus my gardening, are activities that will keep me from being preoccupied w/the dems' doings...and thus save my sanity...hopefully. (For pleasure reading, I recommend D.W. Buffa's novels....well written, strong characters, intricate and well-developed plots.)

There is NOTHING they will not do or say...but I am fast becoming enurded to their dishonorable antics.
