We had so much fun the other night with family movie night that I want to do it all over again. But this time we are watching
The Least Among You this time. Now tonight is Dear's last night away from home. So....it may just be College Girl, Granny M and myself. But I have the niece and nephew along with their 3 kiddos staying here for now. Seems that is plenty for a great big ol nest and fun times.
Here is what they say about the movie. Arrested in the 1965 Watts riots, Richard Kelly (Cedric Sanders) must serve probation at an all-white seminary. Although encouraged to break racial boundaries by its president Alan Beckett (William Devane), the school wants black followers not leaders. Even former missionary, Kate Allison (Lauren Holly), initially rejects Richard. A prison sentence looming, Richard meets Samuel Benton (Louis Gossett, Jr.) -- “the gardener in the basement.” As Samuel guides Richard through his many trials, Richard must choose between his dreams and his destiny. Oh that is some really good actors there. I love Louis Gossett Jr and Lauren Holly too. I think we are in for a good evening. Wanna join us?
I think we are in for a good time. Not only with the actor line up but also based on a true story. It seems that we would be transformed back to a time that we can really learn from. It is amazing to see the difference that has happened in these last 50 years. I bet they would have never guessed that we would have a black president now. Pretty big change there. From not wanting black leaders in the church to now having the leader of our country a black man. Some would still fight against this. Instead we have worked hard on becoming a nation that embraces the differences in people and supporting the ways we can work together to help each other.
