I came back from the cinema a hour ago where I watched Belle. The true story of Belle Dido Lindsay, the legitimate daughter of an Admiral and a slave, whose father confided her to the guardianship of Lord Mansfield, the Lord chief of justice. The presence of Belle shaped and changed the vision of Lord Mansfield and led me to deliver a landmark ruling which later played a pivotal role in the abolition of slavery across the British Empire. The costumes are beautiful, the dialogue is exquisite. And both the piercing beauty and grace of Gugu Mabatha-Raw, the leading actress, make this movie worth watching. Truly recommended. https://youtube/watch?v=Wtdk6owFj2o
