Three Chords to Freedom

Musings on a precious commodity

Cry Freedom – 1987

Just watched this film last night. I saw it when it first came out as an experience with the Denver International Film festival, had forgotten what an incredibly moving experience this film was. Kevin Kline and Denzel Washington were both brilliant. The story of the courage of Steve Biko and Donald Wood’s against the rages of an oppressive regime is incredible. Anyway, I moved on the inspiration and did some more research… here are a couple of the more interesting links I found.

Over the next couple of days I’ll dig into my archives and post a couple of pieces from the past.
