The Best Of Enemies


The Best of Enemies follows the story of Ann Atwater (Henson), a civil rights activist in Durham, N.C., who battled Ku Klux Klan leader C.P. Ellis (Rockwell) for a decade until 1971, when the two agreed to co-chair a two-week community meeting to deal with a court-ordered school desegregation decree. That event changed both of their lives immeasurably.

This is one of those biographical movies that you know is good.  It's well acted.  It tells a great story.  But for some reason the movie is just kind of there.  You pretty much forget having watched it five minutes after its over.

I wouldn't really recommend anyone rushing to see this.  There really is no reason to.  You can just wait to randomly catch this one on tv randomly.
