Selma (2014)

This movie tells the story of Martin Luther King Jr.' s fight for equal voting rights in 1965. He meets with President Johnson to get his support to allow blacks in the south to vote but the President is apprehensive about it. This movie is based on the real events that happened.

This is a good historical movie and I give it a 5 out of 5.

Starring David Oyelowo (Nightingale, Jack Reacher) as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Carmen Ejogo (Away We Go, The Purge: Anarchy) as Coretta Scott King, Jim France (Bastards, The Inspectors) as Gunnar Jahn, introducing Trinity Simone as Girl # 1, introducing Mikeria Howard as Girl # 2, Jordan Rice (34 Inches) as Girl # 3, introducing Ebony Billups as Girl # 4, Nadej k Bailey (Containment, Almost Christmas) as Girl # 5, introducing Elijah Oliver as Boy # 1, Oprah Winfrey (The Color Purple, Beloved) as Annie Lee Cooper, Tom Wilkinson (Batman Begins, Michael Clayton) as President Lyndon B.
