"Selma chronicles the tumultuous three-month period in 1965, when Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. led a dangerous campaign to secure equal voting rights in the face of violent opposition. The epic march from Selma to Montgomery culminated in President Johnson signing the Voting Rights Act of 1965, one of the most significant victories for the civil rights movement. Acclaimed all-star cast includes Golden Globe nominee David Oyelowo (Lee Daniels’ The Butler), Oscar nominees Tom Wilkinson (Michael Clayton), Tim Roth (Pulp Fiction) and Oprah Winfrey (The Color Purple), and Oscar winner Cuba Gooding Jr. (Lee Daniel’s The Butler). Academy Award winner for Original Song, “Glory” performed by John Legend and Common. Produced by Brad Pitt’s Plan B (12 Years a Slave) and Oprah Winfrey’s Harpo Films."
