An outstanding, moving story of survival of the human spirit, dignity & love.

Rating: 10/10 (24 October 2003)

This film exemplifies the adage "do unto others as you would have done to you." It epitomizes that if you treat others with love, generosity & kindness they will learn & understand that they should treat others that way as well. Cuba Gooding, Jr. should win the 2004 Best Actor Academy Award for his portrayal of James "Radio" Robert Kennedy. It has been a long time since I could say that an actor did not get in the way of his character; that is when I was watching the movie I did not see the actor but rather the character. Through outstanding acting skills, as well as the aid of several prothestics, you simply see Radio on the screen. Set in the south in the late 70's this film portrays the continued existence of racial intolerance; which is gradually replaced by tolerance & love.
