This movie may better be called the Rosa Parks (Angela Bassett) and Raymond Parks (Peter Francis James) story. The thing that makes this story work is the relationship between the two. Even though it was Rosa who sat on the bus, and was arrested for not vacating her seat, the were both partner, Raymond usually more concerned about her safety than she was herself.
This was a made for TV movie and it ends with real video of President Clinton awarding her the medal of freedom.
