Mr. and Mrs. Loving (1996)

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

This film was rather simplistic and not completely accurate with the real events that occurred. However, the film was in some aspects a masterpiece. There was a lot of symbolism in the movie. The film was low budget and I found a bad technical flaw (TV sets need an antenna for a clear picture!). However most of the acting was excellent and the story was without parallel. There is a brilliant documentary which I would say is superior to this film called The Loving Story. It is highly recommended to watch before seeing this film so some facts can be established first.What stood out in the film was that racism was systemic in the so-called United States, where the deep south governments in the 60's were clearly the enemy of liberty and freedom. The film should have made a special mention to the good old white boy state of Alabama which thumbed its nose at the Supreme Court by refusing to the miscegenation laws until as late as 2000, when the vote to allow interracial marriage was barely passed.I recommend this film to anyone who believes in freedom, democracy and justice. This obviously excludes members of the KKK who would probably burn it.

I saw this movie when it first aired on television around 10 years ago. Both my husband and I were drawn to it especially because we were in interracial married couple living in the south. We didn't expect it to be so personal and topical.This movie explores love between soul mates and demonstrates that this kind of strong attraction is not so much about the outside but the deep psychic bonds that can occur between people. Timothy Hutton plays one of his best roles as the lover committed to his love. Both of them are put under extreme social pressures that only the bond between soul mates can survive.This isn't a gushy romance movie in the tacky sense. It's a love story played out against the challenges of the political and social times that never lets you forget that hearts are involved. You'll wish you had been so lucky to experience love at this level.I was.

This was a really good interracial love story that did not exaggerate stereotypes. The characters were actually good looking (hear that Whoopie Goldberg!!, and believable. The love story between Timothy Hutton and Lela Rochon comes across as two people who have fallen in love and its up to the rest of the world to get it. I did not like the scenes when they moved to the city and race started to interfere with their lives, but the movie is based on a true story and that was the only sad part. I like the fact that when Lela Rochon's character gets pregnant, there is no drama and Timothy Hutton's character thinks nothing about marrying her. If your a Gen X'r who grew up in a multi-cultured environment, try and get this movie for your collection. It really is a beautiful love story.

This really is one of the greatest movies there are. A movie with depth, which touches your soul. This story makes you wandering. Only a few decades ago a part of America was still living in the Middle Ages. A few people can make a change. I hope the present movies will become more like this one, but probably the movies nowadays are a reflection of our more and more superficial society. But I am an optimist.......
