5.0 out of 5 stars Underrated, Overlooked and So Damn Good, September 28, 2000

For Us the Living, a movie that recently sneaked onto video after airing on national T.V. The story of Medgar Evers, a civil rights leader from the early to mid sixties who was murdered by the Klu Klux Klan. This movie tells us first hand how Medgar, took on racist politicians and came home to be a loving husband. Played beautifully by Holling Rollins, and the gifted Irene Cara. It is on my shelf right there by Malcolm X.

4.0 out of 5 stars Howard Rollins was great as Medgar Evers, October 9, 2011

This review is from: For Us the Living [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is such a great movie before watching Ghosts of Mississippi (1996), I demand that since MGM owns the rights to this movie, they should release it on DVD. Come on, what are they waiting for, for some strange reason, they have the movie being played on the internet. Do you see anyone willing to spend a $1.99 to play this movie?
