    Another great portrayal of two intelligent, powerful, caring, charismatic men in our history I’m never disappointed by any actor portraying these men I always come away with a new respect and admiration I also learned more about the character of Coretta Scott King & Betty Shabazz…Bravo !

    Kelvin is hilarious - "We're under thirty". Yes, dude. So were they! You're right on time and absolutely ready. I saw you in "Chevalier" TWICE. Oscar worthy performance. Own your talent and genius, ground yourself in it. The best is yet to come

      He was so good in Chevalier. I had no idea it was him until I googled.

    Martin Luther King was named after Martin Luther, the Protestant Reformation Leader not after his uncle as said in the movie. Which one is the truth?

      He wouldn't have a _Jr_ in his name if he wasn't named after another family member. That original family member was likely named after Martin Luther.
