[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Watch Eyes on the Prize. [/quote]Eyes on the Prize is a much better choice. I am in the minority on this but I found Selma to be wooden and tedious. I thought it condescended to the SNCC activists and while it was great that Diane Nash was included, the actress playing her barely said a word and mostly sat around looking pretty. Overall too many speeches or dialogue that sounded like speeches and not enough showing how things happened. But lots of people love this movie so don't let my criticism stop you from seeing it. Decide for yourself. But I do recommend checking out Eyes on the Prize for a very moving portrayal of the civil rights movement. I believe Diane Nash is interviewed in the section about the lunch counter sit-ins in Nashville and she's smart and interesting and worth hearing from.[/quote]
