Movies as Literature - Amazing Grace


We had another great session in our Movies as Literature class. I think that though slavery was a topic these students knew about, many didn't have the emotional connection to the plight of the slaves until they studied this movie. 
I think that learning about William Wilberforce was inspiring, not only because of his fight for abolition, but also his fight with his illness, with his addiction to laudanum and his fight to be the man that God was calling him to be.
This was a great movie for discussion! Here are the questions that we used.
