Amazing Grace

Recently i watched a dvd (tx to unc rowlance!), title: Amazing Grace. It's a very nice one, i dono how to describe. But in short, it's about a man's strive to change the world to a better one, William Wilberforce, in the 1800's.

This movie showed how he and his friends struggled to end the slave-trade in Great Britain, against all odd, as Great Britain's plantation and other industries were backed by slaves working there. In short, to end slave-trade is almost equivalent to destroying his own nation's rice bowl (chinese proverb :p).

They struggled hard... and the story was touching, not to the extent of me crying, but I would rewind the movie and rewatch through out again and again. I just luv it. ;) Thank God i was watching it alone.

William and his friends succeeded in the end, after 15 years of struggle. Isn't that long?

*hats off to them. =) *smiles*
