Customer Reviews of The Long Walk Home
An Amazing Journey I thought The Long Walk Home was a captivating movie that captured the struggle that people faced during the civil rights movement. It is aimed at giving the viewer an in-depth look into the lives of everyday people who were in some way affected by the bus boycott in Montgomery, Alabama. Oprah Winfrey plays Odessa, an African-American mother who works as a maid in a community divided by racist beliefs. With depth and poise, the actors bring alive the stories of families who were at the heart of segregation--some wanting to end it, and others fearing what would happen if it did end. Seen through the eyes of a young girl who grows up realizing that black or white, we're all human beings, the movie is a portrayal of a part of our American history that we must all be made aware of. I strongly recommend it for anyone who is looking for a good movie--and a good lesson!!
The Long Walk Home
This movie paints a very vivid picture of the 1955 bus boycott in Montgomery, Alabama. Odessa Cotter, a maid, is in the middle of the beggining of the civil rights struggle. One can see the differences between a white and black family during the 50's. Odessa struggles to support her family and the boycott. One feels the tension between the two groups, and the violence that sometimes resulted. I saw this movie in Morality class, and I'm glad I had the chance to see it. Because of this movie I am more aware of the civil rights struggle and all of the hardships that came with it. I recommend this movie to anyone who wants to enrich their knowledge and enjoy a great movie.
Great movie concerning black's struggle
I thought this movie was a great movie. It depicted the black struggle in the Montogomery Bus Boycott very well. It was very relasitic in showing the inequality that the black people faced in that time period and how many white people were so racist and unfair to them. It also shows how some white people were very helpful and supported the boycott (Miriam). I believe that this movie is a greta movie to make all ages aware of was really occured during the black rights movement. It teaches you alot about the different views of people and what it is like living as a black person and a white person during this era.
