I was sure it was going to be just another civil rights movie, but I was mistaken

When this movie was suggested to me because of my never ending pursuit of cultural studies, supported by my degree in African and Latino Studies, I was quite sure that this would be one of those Hallmark specials that only moved the souls of individuals who have some prior knowledge. I must say though that I was mistaken and found myself clicks away from wanting to contact the man who wrote the book that this movie is based on. You can be a novice to the civil rights movement and still be able to grab the concepts and notions being presented to the viewer. I felt moved to the point of as the verdict in the case was about to be read aloud in the courtroom, I almost stopped the movie because I didn't want to face the verdict. This movie kept me brewing, kept that flame I have lit fanned, and made me thankful for our triumphs but still yearn for the work that still needs to be done. It is a jarring concept that this movie is set in our society a mere 50 years ago.

A compelling film!

Things haven't changed much. Why do whites in this country, particularly in the south, still pass on the hatred? This is a story of yet another Black man who was murdered because of a "Karen".

"Henry Dortress "Dickie" Marrow was an African American veteran who was shot and killed after a racial confrontation with whites in Oxford, North Carolina, on May 12, 1970. The confrontation and murder seemed to have many parallels to the far more famous Emmitt Till case in Mississippi."

This is how it unfolded, "Teel's 18-year-old son Larry, and Larry's wife Judy, were unpacking motorcycles in the parking lot. Marrow was said to make a remark, the content of which is disputed and unknown. She, Judy Teel, later testified that Marrow had spoken "ugly" words to her.

Short of hyped theatrics to drive the passions of the viewer, Blood Done delivers a considered story that educates as well as entertains.

The cast is awesome as is the story.

Good for all :)

Trivia
Among the extras in the film, are author Tim Tyson (as a Klansman), Julie Tyson (member of the jury), and Reverend Vernon Tyson (as a churchgoer, and as a member of the jury.)

Errores
The international truck parked outside the barbershop 20 minutes into the film has rectangular headlights. Round headlights were required in the United States until 1975. The truck appears to be a late 90's or early 2000's model truck. The trailer is also advanced for the era.
