back to main list of reviews

I am writing a review about a book that I read about Morgan Freeman.  The book is a good read it tells you about his life. 

It first started when he was born on the 1 on June 1937 in Memphis Tennessee.  Morgan was telling his story about how it was so different at school then is it is today.  Like how the black kids had to sit in a different class room and use separate toilets. 

His first TV appearance was on a show called The Electric Company. His first big break was is 1987 in a movie called Street Smart. He got nominated or an Oscar for the movie.

He is known more for his second movie called Driving Miss Daisy which was nominated for another Oscar.

One of the best movies that I have seen is called Bruce Almighty which stars Jim Carrey. Morgan plays God in the movie Jim Carrey plays Bruce Almighty who is always complaining about God.  So Morgan – God gives Bruce his powers. All in all the book showed me how the black people and white people were treated so differently in the 1930s.  How children were treaded like they were not people.  If a black man tried to get a job which a white man was also going for people would choose the white man.

Thank you David.

Not being a film person David, I read your review assuming that Morgan had black skin.  Then I got to the God bit and started to think otherwise.

I think I'll try and do a 'movies on demand' and see what it's like.

I'll do a review too.
