A movie about black folk with no gangs. Besides that, little Eva (Jurnee Smollett from Eve's Bayou) done all grow'd up, and she reminds us of a cross between Tisha Campbell during the Martin years and Anna Popplewell from the Narnia movies.Ok, seriously, The Great Debaters got tepid reviews, but it's a solid dramatic bet. The acting is always on point, and though the ending is predictable by the nature of the film (historical drama), we enjoy what we experience along the way.
Highly recommended for the DVD collection.
Also stars Oscar winners Denzel Washington (who directs) and Forest Whitaker.
