King: A Filmed Record… Montgomery to Memphis (1970)

To see a plethora of actual footage from MLK Jr’s life, this film is worth the watch. It doesn’t offer much new if you are well versed in his life, his mission, and the times he lived, but hearing his words in his own voice is powerful. The celebrity interstitials are sometimes a bit jarring and pulling from the flow of the narrative, but it is nice to see many famous faces join in the cause.
