HARRIET (2019)
I had seen the trailer of this movie for quiet a while, but couldn’t make out the time to see it, but guess what I finally got to the end of the movie and I am super excited to share my view. Although this movie wasn’t recent it was recently added and was on top ten for a while. In this movie the director took us down memory lane telling us the story of how the slaves fought for their slavery. Harriet was born a slave and desperately wanted to fight for her freedom, she was willing to risk her life just to be free. When I thought it was over for her and she free, she decided to go back for her people this was when the movie moved to the next dimension, you will need to watch the entire movie to see if she was successful or not. The 125m drama, period pieces, based on real life, social issue movie was directed by Kasi Lemmons, they featured actors like Cynthia Erivo, Leslie Odom Jr., Joe Alwyn, Janelle Monae, Clarke Peters, Vanessa Bell Calloway and many more.
