Loving

From acclaimed writer/director Jeff Nichols, Loving celebrates the real-life courage and commitment of an interracial couple, Richard and Mildred Loving (portrayed by Joel Edgerton and Ruth Negga), who married and then spent the next nine years fighting for the right to live as a family in their hometown. Their civil rights case, Loving v. Virginia, went all the way to the Supreme Court, which in 1967 reaffirmed the very foundation of the right to marry - and their love story has become an inspiration to couples ever since.

Wow!  This was a very powerful character drama covering a time in our history that makes me feel very ashamed.  The tensions and judgements that these characters had to deal with while just trying to live their lives is very upsetting and this movie did a phenomenal job of taking the audience there and making you feel it all through them.  

I would absolutely recommend everyone checking this movie out.  It's definitely one of the better movies of the year carried by phenomenal acting.
