I really liked this film.

I saw it last October at the Heartland Film Festival in its NA "premiere". Apted there to answer questions. I thought the DP did a marvelous job - haven't seen the DVD yet but it was gorgeous in the theater. The set designers and art director did a great job tto - not too grungy, not too precious. It looks...real.

One of the chief virtues of this movie for me was that gathered many of my favortite British actors into one production. I've been a fan of Albert Finney and Michael Gambon for years and years, and I love Ioan Gruffudd and Rufus Sewell who - alas - seldom gets a decent role in Hollywood flicks but is quite gifted and striking. (I had the great pleasure of seeing Sewell on Broadway back in the '90s in Stephen Friel's Translations - WOW.) I am becoming very fond of the young actor who played Pitt, Benedict Cumberbatch (wotta name). He was terrific in another period piece last year, a BBC production of To The Ends Of The Earth.

The core of Amazing Grace the movie - the struggle of a man of conscience to advance social justice within from within the political system - is still timely. Then as now it is all too easy to become discouraged with the nitty gritty of poitical life and withdraw from public service.
