First feature film with King at its core but not hero-worship. Selmas director, Ava DuVernay, defended herself, her motives (she doesnt even like historical dramas) the down and dirty radical truth of ordinary real people (mostly black) not avatars who risked their lives to fight for their rights against the odds and violent power, for all of us, from the (mostly white) nitpicker critics who think the film should have been about reluctantly enlightened (white) condescending saviors like LBJ. Yknow, people like them. Oscar snubs be damned.
