It is impossible for me to say enough about this soul touching movie. If only we could all open our eyes and see what a lovely world this could be if we just learned to love and respect each other. Thank you for posting this I was truely blessed by it.
What a great, inspiring movie. I grew up in the 50's and 60's, but I was never affected by racism, and didn't know about it until I was grown. I was raised in a small town in Wyoming. We had "black" families that lived there as well, and didn't think anything about it. The people in our town never treated them any different than anyone else. We all went to school together, all hung out together and went places together. A lot of us are still friends and are in touch with one another. I never heard the "n" word, or any other racist profiling, until I was much older. I think back on it, and I think it all hit me square in the face when I watched "Roots" on tv. I was so hurt by what I was learning, and it still affects me today. I just DO NOT understand how human beings can do this to another human being....just like the Holocaust. I have a mix of ancestory of mostly Scandivavian and English on my mother's side. I have English and Cherokee on my Fathers side. I knew my ancestors were on the Trail of Tears. I did many years of research and finally got the names and dates back to early 1800's. My mother's side always kept complete genealogy records, but one day I started to dig deeper. When I was younger, my g-grandmother was telling me stories and she simply said..." I think we may have "black" blood". Ok.... it was left at that until now. Her grandparents came west from South Carolina in the mid 1800's. I took their last name and started digging. In the meantime, one of my daughter's gave me a DNA test for Mothers Day one year. When it came back, there was the proof. 18% Nothern Africa and the Iberian Peninsula. To wrap this up, I did trace the family name back to the 1700's in North Carolina, to a plantation owner. I read his will on line and all. One of my ancestors (black and a slave) gave birth to a little girl by this plantation owner. FYI....I don't claim him !!! Of course there is more to the story....the little girl grew up and was married and had a good life. I am just as proud of this heritage as I am of my Native American heritage. In closing I will say that I believe racism is very much taught, as seen in this movie, by the 2 little girls. Also, in a society such as the one I was raised in, our parents didn't teach us such things. I am so grateful for that upbringing and just being a "good ole girl", from Wyoming. Love and God Bless you ALL ❤
What a great story! I grew up during the same time period but did experience racism-my mother is Japanese, my father from Birmingham,AL. But we lived on military bases all my life until my last 2 years in high school. I never realized people were so hateful until then. On military bases no one I knew was treated differently and there was a mix of races. My parents didn’t tolerate racist behavior or language so I didn’t have any exposure at home. Now that I’m older I realize you learn what you live, truly. It takes effort and self realization to understand you carry bias that transfers to your children and on and on. My hope is people realize how much different cultures and races enrich each life (that we take for granted) and look for the good-if you do you will find it.
I to come from slave owners, I am mixed race. I claim them even though they would not want me. Racism is a self loathing we all have, as we are by genetics from monsters and if that side we all have is cultivated enough that is what we again become. Accepting our own dark sides and knowing the difference between evil and goodness is a cross we must all bear as individuals. We are all the good the bad and the ugly and we all have freedom to choose. I choose to be good. Bless you as well. ❤
Beautiful Burlesque all cultures have aspects in their heritage that are shameful. for example African tribes would capture each other and sell them to slave ships. I see what your saying though.
"White man speak with forked tongue." The hypocrisy sickens me. Treat the devoted maid and caretaker like a member of the family, while all the time plotting to destroy her. Sociopaths in plain sight. 😤😟
I loved the love shared between Holt and Sophie he a real man strong kind ambitious and no nonsense ...superb acting by the cast. . may Jason Bernard rest in peace
Helen Adell Coleby Johnson imagine my shock to see he died in 1996. He had a heart attack while driving and was rear ended by another automobile. May he Rest In Peace.
I’m mixed race too . I know , I felt for all a them , especially the children and the two dear friends in question but over all it felt like an uplifting story of love conquering all 🌻♥️
I love the ending when Sophie told Holt she loved him. The look on his face was the sweetest ever. And Sophie gave him the most loving smile. Absolutely beautiful.
Favorite part of the movie...when Holt walks back into the living room wearing Ray's red grand wizard robe after Ray had just denied the knowing anything about the clan. Ray's expression was priceless.
By design, that's how. Give that a good think as you look around and all the campaigns that people are falling for. Christian values are being attacked.
One thing I will never understand is how a person can automatically hate another human being just because their skin is a different color. Predjudice is one of worst things in this crazy world. We were all created equal and in the image of Christ. It just saddens me. It is a taught behavior and it is being taught in all shades. Teach your children to love and accept others and not judge based on skin color.
Well, equal is not enough! Highly melanated people would need much more than we caucasians do, in order to live a fair life. We have been playing with their minds and lifes from when we first went to africa! It was a big setup against people whom are physically and spiritually stronger than us.. I just hope they wont let us keep fooling them, unite, and realize that we, white folks, are actually the minorty. That they were the ones teaching us, when the white skin was still new to this world.
kim biscari This is well said. I think they are scared. The funny thing is that there is no biological truth to "races" of people. Over time, cultures that live nearer the equator develop to have more melanin, over generations, and therefore darker skin. I could use a little more melanin myself, to process sunlight a little better...
I agree. This racism crap has been going on for too long already. If it were the reversal where whites were the minority and they were the ones being terrorized, how long would they last??? The color of the skin doesn't matter, it is the character and the quality of the individual!!! Just because someone has white skin doesn't make them quality!!!
who ever gave this movie a thumbs down should be kicked in the knee. What a beautiful, loving movie and what a sinister act being prejudiced is. Shame and just gut- rot awfulness. I am white and these portrayals disgust me. All of us are God's children, we all must treat each other as we'd treat our loved ones. Amen. God bless this movie and the obvious message of the blessing of Love and Right; it brings.
Now the blacks are turning on the whites. It’s not right no matter who is being racist is in the wrong. Most slaves were European but nobody educates themselves on these issues. You are right about God…We have all been created equally. He doesn’t judge us by the colour of our skin.
I have watched this movie many times over the years and i continue to love this movie. it warms my heart each and every time i watch . Beautiful movie.
This movie is very important, it's classic and based on present day prejudices and historical bias:also show the values of loving people beyond race or creed.. Black and white issues that are still present day. This was based on 50 years ago, yet still very very relevant.. I highly recommend it..
Marion “John Wayne” stated in an interview that the killing and marginalizing of Native Americans by whites had to happen because Native Americans didn’t want to share the resources, yet some white folks quick to tell other races and ethnic groups to go back where they come from. The f🤬ing nerve.
👋i hope you're safe over there? I hope this year brings happiness prosperity love and peace 💞❤️🕊️🕊️ all over the world! Happy New year 🎆 🙏🌍 I'm originally from Canada currently living in California ☀️☀️and you where are you from if i may ask?💭
ITS 2020,,,,IVE PASSED BY THIS MOVIE A THOUSAND TIMES, OVER THE YEARS. I NEVER KNEW IT WOULD BE THIS GOOD. I GUESS THATS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU THINK YOUVE WATCHED ALL THE GOOD ONES, A MUST SEE,,,IF YOU HAVENT,,MAKES ME WONDER HOW MANY OTHERS(MOVIES) ARE JUS WAITIN.. THANK YOU CORONA VIRUS *****
I want me a moon hanging man-he needed her to hang on to the dream with him; when she was weak he was strong! She was just as strong; when he wanted to quit she would not let him. She believed in him and it gave him new life. They balanced each other; she thanked God for her man and saying he's the finest blessing a woman could have! Together, we can do anything!
This is one movie that gave me such a lot of satisfaction! This moonhanger man was not afraid to stand up for his family and their rights! He put all his trust and faith in God!Wow! His Boldness and courage to claim and possess his families land and properties, were awesome! The clan members were a lot of murderers and cowards! There were a lot of Caucasian Americans who were against the clan! Thank you, for uploading this great movie!
They were against them...unfortunately they opposed the Klan quietly from the comfort of their homes. While black Americans lived in absolute terror. Silence is compliance.
@@ReiOfSunahineexactly. “A lot of Caucasians who were against the clan?” Like who? You have some of the small percentage who actually fought against injustice beside us. The rest like you said stayed silent in their homes like cowards.
The world would be a better place if all race`s could get along together in peace, No matter what the skin color is, I am so glad this movie ended well.
I liked that Holt always called Sophie "Sophie Girl", and I wish that Sophie and her family would’ve corrected the Edgertons earlier instead of letting them call her "Soapie" all that time.
cried my eyes out. Reality is so very hard to know. I think that is why most of us surround ourselves with "play things" whatever they may be. Bless you all!!
@@karenbrank3619 I'm white and if I could take away the hell that some white people have put some black people through... I would in a heartbeat. 😔🙏🙏🙏💙❤️
What an amazing movie! I will be watching it again and again. We have come such a long way and yet these old ways still exist. I remember a Klan member coming to our house and asking my husband to join the Klan it was a weekly thing. He politely turned them down and said to me and I quote: Diane if ever I ask you shut your mouth this would be the time. I did because I knew the power they held and still do. I know this is a movie but Holt stood up and stood strong and proud. This horrid way of thinking can only be changed for the better if one stands up stands strong and stands proud. We are a tri-racial family both black white and native. I wouldn't have it any other way. Enjoy and believe and pray because that's what keeps us strong.
I just saw this movie today and loved it ! Isn't it amazing what a little faith and courage can do ? And how ugly hate can be ? Racism should never have existed. It is the cause of crime not the end of it.
Oh, I couldn't call it nice! It's heartbreaking and not even half way through and won't carry on watching as it's too upsetting for me to think that people lived like that and still do, because of their skin colour. People who hate others because of different skin colour must be of very low intelligence!
Because I am a lover of Jesus, I must give all my problems to Him, but my hand aches!! and my heart aches., but Jesus will have them answer when they stand before Him.
Absolutely horrific how African Americans were treated, I grew up during the riots, due to never seeing color, in Jr. or Sr. High, I was alerted before one. Absolutely beautiful movie of the Lord's protection over this wonderful family.
It goes deeper then racism. Abuse starts with Narcissism & through various types disordered people (Domestic & other types of violence), which is all abt Power & Control & manipulation of the people. We think we are all free in America, however if you do your homework, you'd find out that isn't true either. You ever wonder why the majority of the news is negative, & while some of it is true, there are plenty of lies to promote the news, cause most everyone believes in gossip & smear campaigns. There is a lot of chaos, in this world, which is going on, in order to get our mind off main focus!! In the day of Hitler, they killed all races & religious types of people, it wasn't just the Jews, I've been to Poland, & I've seen the evidence which is there. There is no end to violence in Satan's world: for hes' has corrupted the world & the people in it & their minds. According to the Bible the end times are when there's wars & rumors of wars. There is blood on the hands of those who have hurt/killed others & those who promote it. The master manipulator's will turn the hearts of of men towards the Anti-Christ, he will claim to be god & deceive many. I long for the Lord to take me home to heaven: cause it is going to be sweeter then anything anyone can imagine upon this earth.
If religions preach If you are not a sacred Christian or a believer Mohammedans you going to hell Which God thus speak off ? The warmongering hateful desert God of abraham Mohammed and the pope ?
Pleased I've had the opportunity to see this film. Many lessons for those on both sides of this continuing battle. Not to be misunderstood, there are two sides, God's and the other. Holt and Sophia are on God's side. Bonnie's ex-husband is on the side of hate and fear. Hate and fear separate us from God. There will never be righteousness in hate and fear.
Great movie. I watched this before. A few years back. I couldn't remember how it ended. But, I was sure glad it had a good ending. Thanks for the upload!
Yes it also made me think about how Jesus died on the cross for us all and they pick the cross to burn on black people home's. And then had the nerve to pray to God before they burned the cross. Those white people hearts are so, so cold. Don't know that God judge the heart of us all. No matter what color we are. I am a proud black woman of God.
With all due respect, ma'am - we all already are the color God put on us right here on Earth. Red, Yellow, Black, Brown and White - these are all God's colors. They are all different, but very much the same... precious in His sight.
Hi I roared laughing too! And THEN I thought, there’s TRUTH in that, because Our Lord BREATHED into Adam’s nostrils, The Breath of Life! Resurrection is ‘ Take two’ on that! Shalom to us only in Christ Yeshua returning soon to reign over the world from Jerusalem forever.
Lynn Whitfield and Patricia Richardson are both awesome in this movie. I've always enjoyed it every time I watched it. I had it on VHS tape,but where does one find a VCR these days? Now I have it. Thank you. Blessings from Canada 🇨🇦🙏
It really hurt my heart to see the little girls play patty cake, they can't even enjoy each others company and friendship without the hate filled ignorant adults
Ray was a straight coward..how I wish Holt would have torn him apart..but I respect the way he handled the situation.excellent movie..so glad I found this.
Where are the men with Holt’s strength, ambition, integrity, and fearlessness yet he loves the Lord thy God? What a movie of dignity‼️
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Holt is GREAT!!!
I love the way he came in took care of them all her her momma and her kids and made them his family that was the most beautiful part of this movie

He politely turned them down and said to me and I quote: Diane if ever I ask you shut your mouth this would be the time. I did because I knew the power they held and still do. I know this is a movie but Holt stood up and stood strong and proud. This horrid way of thinking can only be changed for the better if one stands up stands strong and stands proud. We are a tri-racial family both black white and native. I wouldn't have it any other way. Enjoy and believe and pray because that's what keeps us strong.
AMEN
One of my favorite movies of all time!
Which state was this shot in North carolina Virginia Georgia or Tennessee.
Ditto from Canada
I just saw this movie today and loved it ! Isn't it amazing what a little faith and courage can do ? And how ugly hate can be ? Racism should never have existed. It is the cause of crime not the end of it.
I still have a postcard from Patricia Richardson ( Mrs. Bonnie ) from when she was on Home Improvement. I love this film though. X
“She turned him down, so now he’s trying to drown her!” 🤣🤣🤣
A TRUE MOVIE OF FRIENDSHIP AND UNCONDITIONAL LOVE
Loved this movie, even the 2nd time around. In God's sight, we are all the same.
I just love Sophie's mother.
Yeah willona from good times
thank you for the comments
I believe it's the late Janet dubois
Outstanding movie!Mr.Holt is a real man.
We need more men like Mr.Holt in this world 😊
Oh what a beautiful story. I wish I had seen this a long time ago!!
So glad that I gave this movie a chance. ❤
Great Movie...
Great Story...
Great Ending...
Beautiful movie watching in 2019 true friends do anything for each other women are true pillars of strength!!!!
"Lawd have mercy...That ain't no mouth to mouth resurrection!" Just like my elders...just stick words in any sentence...but you know what they mean
😆
LOL😂👍
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣 That is so true and wouldn’t dare try to correct them either. Too busy trying to hide my laugh.
@@slw04 me too
Such a powerful, superbly performed story of pure, enduring love juxtaposed beside naked evil, ignorance and inbred hate. Took my breath away.
👍👍👍
brings me back to the good old lifetime movies
Winfield is such a great actress
I haven't seen this movie in years!! So glad I found this...
What a nice movie !!! Im so happy to the ending giving a glorious to our LORD.
Oh, I couldn't call it nice! It's heartbreaking and not even half way through and won't carry on watching as it's too upsetting for me to think that people lived like that and still do, because of their skin colour. People who hate others because of different skin colour must be of very low intelligence!
I did change y mind and did watch it to the end. I understand why you said it was nice, it was because of the lovely ending.☺️🤗
Exceptional acting👌🙌👏👍...
Amen and Amen and Amen to all comments on Holt ohh what a mighty fine man and husband and father 💙
A very moving, beautiful film!
Because I am a lover of Jesus, I must give all my problems to Him, but my hand aches!! and my heart aches., but Jesus will have them answer when they stand before Him.
Absolutely horrific how African Americans were treated, I grew up during the riots, due to never seeing color, in Jr. or Sr. High, I was alerted before one. Absolutely beautiful movie of the Lord's protection over this wonderful family.

Racism should of never been in this world we all are one in God's eyes
Sandy Husain Eve started this mess
It goes deeper then racism. Abuse starts with Narcissism & through various types disordered people (Domestic & other types of violence), which is all abt Power & Control & manipulation of the people. We think we are all free in America, however if you do your homework, you'd find out that isn't true either. You ever wonder why the majority of the news is negative, & while some of it is true, there are plenty of lies to promote the news, cause most everyone believes in gossip & smear campaigns. There is a lot of chaos, in this world, which is going on, in order to get our mind off main focus!! In the day of Hitler, they killed all races & religious types of people, it wasn't just the Jews, I've been to Poland, & I've seen the evidence which is there. There is no end to violence in Satan's world: for hes' has corrupted the world & the people in it & their minds. According to the Bible the end times are when there's wars & rumors of wars. There is blood on the hands of those who have hurt/killed others & those who promote it. The master manipulator's will turn the hearts of of men towards the Anti-Christ, he will claim to be god & deceive many. I long for the Lord to take me home to heaven: cause it is going to be sweeter then anything anyone can imagine upon this earth.
So true dear friend, and God is one.
If religions preach
If you are not a sacred Christian or a believer Mohammedans you going to hell
Which God thus speak off ?
The warmongering hateful desert God of abraham Mohammed and the pope ?

Pleased I've had the opportunity to see this film. Many lessons for those on both sides of this continuing battle. Not to be misunderstood, there are two sides, God's and the other. Holt and Sophia are on God's side. Bonnie's ex-husband is on the side of hate and fear. Hate and fear separate us from God. There will never be righteousness in hate and fear.
Great movie. I watched this before. A few years back. I couldn't remember how it ended. But, I was sure glad it had a good ending. Thanks for the upload!
He is a good man Need more like him
What an excellent movie, thank you so much!
one of the best movies I have seen. Guys I urge you to watch the Italian movie 'life is beautiful' with Benigni.
I enjoyed this old movie God is good all the time
Thank you for posting this movie. it had several powerful messages that I wont forget!
Don Rider is that all you saw?
Yes it also made me think about how Jesus died on the cross for us all and they pick the cross to burn on black people home's. And then had the nerve to pray to God before they burned the cross. Those white people hearts are so, so cold. Don't know that God judge the heart of us all. No matter what color we are. I am a proud black woman of God.
Thank you for posting this absolutely 💯 worth watching movie ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
So glad I came across it.
May God bless ❤🙏
This is the best story I've seen in a looong time! Canada
When we get to Heaven, we'll all be the same color, the color God puts on us.
Amen!!
With all due respect, ma'am - we all already are the color God put on us right here on Earth. Red, Yellow, Black, Brown and White - these are all God's colors. They are all different, but very much the same... precious in His sight.
That’s cute 😊
@@shakirashakira3275 an elderly lady that lived close to me said it.
love this movie...one of my favorites. Thanks for posting
I love this movie, it kept a appearing in my feed, it was meant for me to watch it.
Mouth to mouth ressurection xD that Mom is such a sassy lady xD
And Holt is such a good man, I cried when he said he's the little boy's daddy now.
Mouth to mouth resurrection..I can't stop laughing. I just love her mother.
Hi
I roared laughing too!
And THEN I thought, there’s TRUTH in that, because Our Lord BREATHED into Adam’s nostrils, The Breath of Life! Resurrection is ‘ Take two’ on that!
Shalom to us only in Christ Yeshua returning soon to reign over the world from Jerusalem forever.
We had vision and plans back then
Some of us still have visions and plans.i do
Love is capable across lines of color, race, religion, economic status and so on. The children really proved that❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
What an emotional movie! aaah, welled up seeing some scenes ,but happy to see a very happy ending . They all lived happily ever after..
Lynn Whitfield and Patricia Richardson are both awesome in this movie. I've always enjoyed it every time I watched it. I had it on VHS tape,but where does one find a VCR these days? Now I have it. Thank you. Blessings from Canada
🇨🇦🙏
Both are outstanding actresses. N the lady playing grandmother is just great.
I have been looking for the movie! Haven't seen it since I was a kid! Thanks for uploading!!!
I have been looking for this movie for many years; only saw it once-always said, "I want myself a moonhaning man". Bren Sibert
+Codie Davis You can get this movie at Walmart. I found it and was like YASSS!
bless you for posting this!!! I been searching for this movie forever, 20 years to be exact
lies
Such a tear jerker, Loved it, Thanks for the up load
Beautiful Movie! 5 stars!
got goosebumps at the end what an AMAZING Movie!
It really hurt my heart to see the little girls play patty cake, they can't even enjoy each others company and friendship without the hate filled ignorant adults
you got it , children, the adults of all colors are stupid
@@marcelinoperez2926 I don’t know if I agree with you. Klan members were the ones terrorizing black families just trying to live their lives.
Ray was a straight coward..how I wish Holt would have torn him apart..but I respect the way he handled the situation.excellent movie..so glad I found this.
