Amazing Grace
The movie "Amazing Grace" really is an amazing movie. It gives and takes in a way that you could only imagine. It gives because it gives viewers encouragement and want for determination, and also takes because the movie takes away feelings of carelessness about what's going on in the world or what has happened already.
This movie was directed by Michael Apted, and was written by Steven Knight. Two wonderful producers. They made the movie in such a way that it makes viewers feel the pain and sorrow that William felt in the movie. His pain was that there was still slave trade going on and sorrow for how nothing was done about it. This movie uses various techniques to make viewers more interested in it. The language style they use, their accent brings out everything they say. Not only is it just words but the words are emphasized on the perfect parts of the sentence and makes it clear to the audience what the point is and what they are trying to get across to the viewers.
I really liked how William never gave up and even though everybody was kind of opposed to his opposition to slavery, he still kept on trying to get people to understand and feel what he felt.
This movie reminds me a lot about Jesus and his stay here on Earth long ago. He tried to get everyone to listen to him, he tried to preach to them, and he tried to help them, but only his disciples would listen. The rest of the crowd would do nothing and really only hated on him especially the king because there was another ruler trying to out-throne him. Jesus never gave up and all the way until he was crucified never stopped trying to get everyone to listen to him. He always loved them even though they hated him. Even on the cross he prayed to God to forgive them.
It was an inspiring movie and the title of the movie really does support what was going on in the movie. It IS an amazing movie and Grace IS AMAZING.
