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.
