Amazing Grace The Story Of William Wilberforce Movie

The promotion of the new film "Amazing Grace: The Story of William Wilberforce" looks a lot like social activism, what with its fundraising for human rights groups, a petition drive, screenings for members of Congress, large-scale days of prayer in the U.S. and England, even high school history lessons and church sermons. In fact, the sales pitch and the goodwill are so intertwined here that it's hard to know where one ends and the other begins. And maybe that's the point.
