A Woman Called Moses

It told the history of a woman who had the courage not only to escape slavery but helped others escape this abominable acts in the mist of others putting on price on her capture.

I watched this dvd, over the weekend and loved Ms. Cicely Tyson, R.I.P whom I love was a great actress. Shows her craft @ her early years so you can see why she was greatly appreciated and loved. Thank you for taking great care of this Dvd.

To replace a worn out VCR tape.

I still have yet to watch movie but it is hard to find I like Amazon for finding rare movies

I had this movie on VHS so I was pleased to get it on DVD. I can't say enough about this movie or Cicely Tyson! Great actress to say the least. My mother had this movie when I was young and I am just as amazed now as I was back then. Cicely captures ur attention all the way thru in this movie. She draws u in so much that u almost feel as if u were there. Also she's an actor that never sells u short on any of her characters. She's either going to give u her all or nothing at all. This movie helps u to understand things back then in what African American ppl went though but most importantly how we got over!

You just have to love Ms. TysonNothing else to say🎥😎

It was pretty good, but (let's face it) there are other good slavery movies out there--that are (probably) a lot better. Some people believe that her greatest role was most likely, Sounder. That's a role that she is better known in, but I don't care what others think, I enjoyed this movie when it first (originally) aired back in the late 1970s and I thought it was pretty good. Even though I've since found out that the Underground Railroad was not (by any stretch of the imagination) a clandestine operation--because white slave traders were fully aware of it's existence and I've discovered (through history) that a lot of escaped slaves were (actually) turned in while participating in the Underground Railroad. I'm not (exactly) sure if Harriet Tubman (the main character) was the culprit, but I know that some of the escapees were caught by slave catchers seeking to recapture their lost properties.

A must for Black historians of all races, colors & creeds. Cicely Tyson was the greatest Black actress of her time. In this historical epic she transforms into Harriet Ross Tubman, founder of the Underground Railroad, who risked her life to lead hundreds of slaves to freedom in the North BEFORE the Civil War. She also aided the Union Army as a reconnaisance agent, mobilizing black troops, freeing slaves and staging raids on plantations. For those she helped get to The Promised Land she became known as "Moses".In this great production Cicely is supported by Will (Grand Pa Walton) Geer in his final performance and Robert Hooks & James Wainwright. With narration by the legendary Orson (War of the worlds) Wells.

NICE.

Was an interesting story, unfortunatly the film quality was very poor, alot done in the dark, that could be due to not being digitally updated, was a shame.

Worked okay, but quality of picture not the best. Looks like it was copied directly from VHS. Arrived when you said it would and in time for a Christmas present
