Soul mates and the times
|
My husband and I first saw this when it was released 10 years ago. We found ourselves mirrored in this movie--the struggle of soul mates who happened to be different races to simply be together like any other couple. As played by Hutton and Rechon, this movie is one of the best love stories you'll ever see.
Who knows why Loving took to his wife so? In a part of the country where race was always a factor, love between these two people easily materialized and created lasting bonds. The Duke of Wales had no problem giving up his throne for the woman he loved; Richard Loving had no problem sacrificing for his love either. And this love story is just as heartfelt and powerful as any told in books or movies. The forces that strive to separate them, drive them out of their home in Virginia, pressure them, whatever, just don't succeed. It's a fascinating look at our country under apartheid and its growth out of it by activists who could find legitimate cases challenging our legal and moral views.
Aside from the politics, the love story soars. At the end, it will make you weep for a soul mate if you haven't been blessed to find yours yet. |
