Subject: Re: Civil Rights Films?

Nina,

I've attached the following list of films from the Stanford online library catalog looking up the key "CIVIL RIGHTS". Of the ones I've seen, the best are "Freedom on My Mind," "We Shall Overcome," "Eyes on the Prize," and the films of King's "I Have a Dream" speech; "The Long Walk Home" is also pretty good as Hollywood movies go.
