My family and I love going to see movies! We have already gone twice this week. We went saturday and today, monday. Today I saw Lee Daniels’ The Butler, with my family but also my grandparents. It was my grandmother who wanted to see it. We all agreed. I loved it. I was also touched by the compelling story that was told of the main character, Cecil. I think we were all touched.
The story began when he was little. Cecil is black and grew up on a cotton farm with his parents. His Mom and Dad were both abused. Since the tragic things happened when was just a kid, a white lady living in the plantation brought him up as a house slave. By the tragic things that happened in front of him he decided to leave. He went to Georgia and then got a job offer in D.C. Although this seems harsh, this got him all the way to The White House. Cecil worked there for twenty years, retired and lived through one of his two sons and wife die. He went though the time of Martin Luther King and Kennedy. It was great and touching movie for any age.
