Harriet

Our 120th Rialto Recommends choice was in theatres last November. Directed by Kasi Lemmon (Talk to Me) HARRIET stars Cynthi Erivo in an Oscar nominated performance as American Hero Harriet Tubman. HARRIET tells the extraordinary tale of Harriet Tubman's escape from slavery and transformation into one of America's greatest heroes, whose courage, ingenuity, and tenacity freed hundreds of slaves and changed the course of history. "The intensity and the lyrical fervor of Kasi Lemmons's direction lend this historical drama, about Harriet Tubman's escape from slavery and her work with the Underground Railroad, the exalted energy of secular scripture," raved The New Yorker. The Chicago Tribune said "HARRIET is a deeply spiritual film that asks the audience to take Harriet's experience and religious beliefs at face value, but it's fascinating to watch how Harriet's faith in God evolves and expands to include faith in herself and her own power." Check out HARRIET streaming on HBOMax and DirectTV. HARRIET is also available to rent for a modest fee from Apple, FandangoNow, Vudu, Microsoft, DirectTV, and FlixFling HERE.
