Harriet—wonderfully written and well-acted—tells the story of female
anti-slave activist Harriet Tubman and how she saves hundreds of slaves and brings
them to freedom. The portrayal of this
movie is incredibly well done. It deserves its place in the home video library
and serves as a good teen/adult share movie that gives excellent opportunity
for discussion after viewing.
