Based on Bob Zellner's memoir, this civil-rights drama follows a white college student (Lucas Till) in 1961 Alabama who breaks from his inheritance of prejudice to join the movement. The film plays like an awakening-tentative, dangerous, and finally resolute-and treats activism as work done in the company of others. With Julia Ormond, Lex Scott Davis, Lucy Hale, Brian Dennehy, and Cedric the Entertainer.
