Inspired by the true story of Dido Elizabeth Belle, this powerful film stars Gugu Mbatha-Raw as the mixed-race daughter of a British Navy officer raised by her wealthy great-uncle (Tom Wilkinson) and his wife (Emily Watson). Although racism prevents her from enjoying the full advantages of her upbringing, Belle’s love for an idealistic young man sparks change that may impact generations to come.
Dido Elizabeth Bell, the illegitimate, mixed-race daughter of a Royal Navy admiral, plays an important role in the campaign to abolish slavery in England.

Not subtle but compelling nonthelessBelle was a pleasant picture. The elegant period scenery seemed to outshine the script. The message is obvious but very uplifting. The villainy of the antagonists was a clear reflection of the prejudices lurking in every heart..Score: 3/5
Absolutely beautifulI cannot believe I kept pushing off watching this movie... 🤦🏽♀️. I truly loved all the characters and of course John Davinier/Sam Reid 😍. The story is truly an important one in the history of slavery/Britain. Strong performances from the cast,lovely costumes, passionate and driven characters! I am tired of seeing weak female leads, Gugu was phenomenal❤️.Score: 5/5

The Story Itself...Is not my cup of tea in the sense that she seems to ungrateful to her uncle who has been kind to her. She seems to lack appreciation for the fact that he didn't have to take care of her the way he did. Stopped halfway..Score: 2/5

WATCHED IT TWICE BACK TO BACKLoved this movie! It blew me away with the courage that the main characters displayed during a time when it would have been easier to go along to get along. Not to mention it was based on a true story. This movie was beautifully done without showing violence (that wasn't needed) but was inferred. It was a movie of hope, not of hate. I highly recommend this movie to all. I have to get the book!!!.Score: 5/5

Enjoyed itI liked this movie. It was easy to watch with wonderful costumes, physically beautiful people and stunning examples of England’s wealth in the 18th century. Is it a true story or not? I don’t know but I do like to believe just a little bit. I would recommend this movie..Score: 4/5
