Miss Evers' Boys Full Movie

One of the greatest performances from Mr. Fishburne. This movie simply illuminates the stark racism that spread throughout the government during the 1930s and shows how a woman did everything in her power to help her friends.

Just saw this old film about a so-called experiment where the doctors would forbid treatments to patients because they were african-americans and to prove they would die the same way that white people would die. This would be absolutely unethical today. It was at the time but being unethical is what the english invasion was all about. The invasion was not possible any other way. Just think about it. Now that the large majority is assimilated, they can relax a notch. Well,pretty good film. Good tv film, well acted. True story. In the synopsis, they say that some were injected with syphillis but in the film, it was not clear that they were injected with it. It is rather inferred that they all had it already. I find it hard to believe that they would infect people a deadly disease without consent and without treatment in the 1930s, although the englishes are known to have done much worse to the natives before. Mmmh, it's possible. And a look online shows that it did happen. It makes sense now that so many people believe 9-11 was a government plot from the start.

The screen writing in this film as well as the performances are impeccable. Alfre Woodard and Lawrence Fishburne are inspiring.

A film more effective in its message than in its execution. The flaws first: the acting in this movie is frankly sub-par, despite its very good cast. The movie was not sure who to focus on in terms of development, so it tried to tackle showing all of them, and it ust ending up with a lot of shallow characters. The good parts: sets were great, I really felt like I was there. The story really conveyed the tragedy effectively, in no small part that it was so well paced. The movie was trying to show what happened with the Tuskeegee Experiment, in which the United States government knowingly and willfully experimented on a group of black people to see the effects of syphilis over a period of time, in order to see if they reacted differently than white people, even though they had a known cure for the disease. It is a very important piece of history in illustrating very blatant racism, and reminding us that we aren't out of the woods yet.
