"You know the song, now be part of the story"

'The incredible true story of one man's fight to change the world" one of the taglines that best described Amazing Grace. It was beautifully directed by Michael Apted who gained 17 wins and 11 nominations and written by Steven Knight, together they created an inspiring film that touched viewers' hearts. I thought the movie was hard to follow but it was definitely worth watching it. The story began 15 years later when William Wilberforce met his future wife and the flashback started from there. This film captured the viewers to think beyond what they could about the hardships,politics, and religion without even getting confused with the whole view of slavery. The creators made this movie as an inspiring historical drama that was up to date for the viewers' eyes. The cinematography and costumes were excellent as well. Wilberforce a rising political star who was not afraid to show his faith and integrity in public stood up to abolish slavery. I admired him for getting out of his comfort zone and tried his best to end slavery. According to many viewers they rated the film as a movie that exercised faith and hardships. Not only it covered about saving slavery but it also touched on religious prospective. God honored diligence, like Wilberforce who never gave up and God saw it. Just like Moses who did not gave up through out his hardships in Egypt. God found them and honored their years of struggles.
