The film “Selma” is about the march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama. This film portrays some of the hardships that African Americans had to go through in the 1960’s. This film also showed the perseverance and resilience of African Americans that were apart of the civil rights movement.
I really enjoyed this film. I can really feel the emotion of Dr. Martin Luther King while watching this film. I also found that I was more emotionally attached because this film was based on true events. There were obviously some parts that triggered my emotion more than others. The most emotion driven scene was the scene in which Dr. King says that he will die if it means that African Americans will have equal rights when he is gone. I considered this a very noble thing to do and I aspire to be a man like him.
