We went out to see Amazing Grace after the service today. It's a good movie and we as Christians should go out to support wholesome movies like these. Barbara Spooner, played by Romola Garai, was beautifully portrayted. She was such a vibrant and invigorating spirit in his life. John Newton, the one that composed the classic hymn Amazing Grace, played by Albert Finney. The man was a captain of slave ships, until 20 years after he came to Christ did he stop being part of the slave trade. He played the role especially well the moment Wilberforce , played by Ioan Gruffudd, visited him when he had completely lost his sight and was recounting his account to be written down.
