The Painting (2001)
Beautiful love story
I loved this movie not only because it was about two people who chose love over everything else. I also liked that it exposed the hidden racism that far too many people still have on both sides. I am both black and white so I understand the hidden prejudices on both sides.
The fact that they were black and white wasn't the point to me. The actor who played the black driver did a wonderful job, I liked and believed this role that showed what he was made of. After saving the boys life he became a father figure to the young man. Randy found himself in this new world where love was more abundant and more important than money.
I lived during this era and many have forgotten just how far apart people were. This movie made me and many other weep. So I vote with the majority and say this was a great movie.
