Written by latestrings on
A few men in history arise and call to others to be numbered among the ones that serve a greater cause. These are the purveyors of hope, individuals that spur others on to a higher calling, a nobler purpose. They serve as an inspiration and encourage others to dream of more. Such was the life of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. His life and work look much different than those that chased the spotlight and loved fame. He didn’t just push for change in the laws that governed access and opportunity; he pressed for hearts to be moved to do the right thing. He ... Read Full Story

DreamWorks' Martin Luther King film back on track

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Plans for a feature film about civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. appeared back on track on Tuesday as DreamWorks Studios said it has hired Oscar-winning screenwriter Ronald Harwood to pen a script. DreamWorks announced in May that it had acquired life rights for the slain Nobel Peace Prize laureate, marking the first time a major biographical movie about King had been authorized by his estate.
