Chasing Churchill: In Search of My Grandfather (2008)
A great perspective on the life of Winston Churchill
I am a huge admirer of Churchill, but I enjoyed this even more than I expected. Celia travels to places that her grandfather visited and you get a unique view of history. This is worth purchasing and rewatching.
The Atlanta Child Murders (1985)
Ok movie- It focused too much on the writer's belief in Williams' innocence and not enough on the true child murder victims
I had hoped to see a movie more about the genuine victims and their families. Instead, most of the movie was about the trial where Abby Mann (the writer), clearly thought Wayne Williams was innocent.
While the case wasn't a slam dunk, there was plenty of fiber evidence linking Williams and as of recently, some actual DNA evidence.
That said, the movie did cover most of the case and Morgan Freeman's acting helped to salvage it.
12 Strong (2018)
An amazing true story
A true story that wasn't able to be told until now because it was classified. One of Al Qaeda's worst defeats and a story worth telling. I'm a war movie buff and this is a great one to add to my collection. Chris Hemsworth captivated me with his performance.
Maya Angelou and Still I Rise (2016)
Amazing and Inspirational
I didn't know much about Maya Angelou before watching this documentary. I wasn't interested in the past because I'm a conservative and had always heard she was very liberal. That said, I fell in love with her watching this documentary. When you see and hear her story, all of the struggles she overcame and just her passion, strength and determination, you walk away inspired. I can't wait to read her many books that she has written.
