Cry, the Beloved Country (1995)
4.5 stars out of 5
I have seen this movie out there for a decade now and kept meaning to see it. The opportunity presented itself this Memorial Day weekend, so I took it. The story is set in the mid 1940s in South Africa. A priest is on a quest to find his long lost son. It seemed that everyone was getting lost in South Africa back then - hopefully they are better at keeping track of people now that we have email and cell phones.
Great movie - heavyweight actors James Earl Jones and Richard Harris turn in great performances. The movie delivers solid messages on racism, forgiveness and family. Highly recommend.
