Belle

On Tuesday, June 24, 2014, I went to see the movie Belle, featuring Matthew Goode, Tom Wilkinson, Emily Watson, and Penelope Wilton.  The movie is based on the real-life story of Dido Elizabeth Belle, who was an illegitimate mulatto child that was born.  Because of her unique situation, she cannot dine with her family, as she is not considered truly white, but she is too high in rank to dine with the servants.

The movie also treats the story of the progression of slavery in England as well as the historical Zonk case.  A movie that was very well directed and the acting was extremely well done.
