Loving from Focus Features

From acclaimed writer/director Jeff Nichols (Midnight Special, Mud, Take Shelter), this movie celebrates the real-life courage and commitment of an interracial couple, Richard and Mildred Loving (Joel Edgerton and Ruth Negga), whose civil rights case, Loving v. Virginia, went all the way to the Supreme Court. This film will be a must watch for many of us because back in 1967 things were a lot different. I would venture to say that we have a more “modern day case” of this happening now across the US with the same sex marriage arguments. If you haven’t seen it you should, it is one of my favorite movies of the year!!

Now open in theaters in select cities and will expand across the country later in November.
