We had the privilege of seeing this movie recently and we were impressed. Although I grew up in England, I wasn't very familiar with William Wilberforce's achievements, so I was fascinated.Last week while I was teaching Sunday School to the 4-Kindergarten class, I was really surprised when one of the children suggested that we sing Amazing Grace and many of them knew the words!

Trust me, I would so have rather been at the movie with you than home with sick kids. Sad to have missed it. :(
I just heard today, that "Amazing Grace" made no. 10 in the box office hits, which is wonderful. My only disappointment with the movie, is that it didn't end with some kind of mention of how we can help end slavery today. I thought the website accompanying the film was excellent, but the film missed a great opportunity.
