Description:
Powerful and uplifting, CRY, THE BELOVED COUNTRY was widely hailed as one of the best films of the year! In a land torn by hatred and injustice, James Earl Jones (CLEAR & PRESENT DANGER) and Richard Harris (GLADIATOR, THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO) are two fathers -- one a man of peace, the other a man of power and privelege -- whose lives seem destined for a violent collision. But instead, in the wake of a tragic killing, these extraordinary men form an unlikely union ... and together find the kind of understanding that could heal a nation! Based on the acclaimed novel, this electrifying motion picture will both entertain and inspire you!
Amazon.com:
This moving 1995 adaptation of Alan Paton's celebrated novel stars James Earl Jones as a beloved, rural minister in South Africa who makes his first trip to Johannesburg in search of his son. The latter's destiny has been linked with that of a doomed, young white man, whose racist father (Richard Harris) is approached by Jones's character in the spirit of mutual understanding. Directed by Darrell James Roodt (Sarafina!), the film is most powerful in those scenes featuring Harris and Jones together, though early sequences grounded in the hard life and times of Jones's community are colorful and dramatic. It's impossible not to be touched by the cautious but real connection made between the principal characters and by the moral authenticity of the actors. --Tom Keogh

I have seen this movie out there for a decade now and kept meaning to see it. The opportunity presented itself this Memorial Day weekend, so I took it. The story is set in the mid 1940s in South Africa. A priest is on a quest to find his long lost son. It seemed that everyone was getting lost in South Africa back then - hopefully they are better at keeping track of people now that we have email and cell phones.
Great movie - heavyweight actors James Earl Jones and Richard Harris turn ... Read More

i purchased this for classroom use, along with the reading of the novel. high school seniors enjoy talking about the universal themes in the book, but do not like the book. hoping the movie would elevate their interest, i showed it prior to finishing the book. they said that it just is NOT interesting. i, the teacher, love it!!!!

"Cry, the Beloved Country" is the best book I have read this year, one that I would like to share with all friends and family. First, it is beautifully written and carried me on a journey to South Africa. It can be read on several levels, but what touched me most deeply was the message conveyed through the spirit, that fear is overcome by love--and that love which overcomes comes from God. Though a "secular" classic, this gem should be on the best-seller list in every Christian bookstore in the country. ... Read More

Excellent movie. A black preacher(Jones) and a white wealthy landowner(Harris) played their roles astoundingly.
Living in an environment of apartheid or pending apartheid, both have experienced their own personal tragedies. Being complete strangers to each other, they eventually met face to face in a friendly atmosphere.Then as he was about to leave, the preacher turnd around and told the landowner, "My greatest sorrow is your greatest sorrow."
A definitely "must see" movie for everyone, young ... Read More
