Alfre Woodard dominates this conventionally made, moving story about the Tuskegee experiment. She brings her usual pathos and dignity to a role that requires such a sympathetic, likable presence. Her chemistry with Laurence Fishburne only elevates this. The structure is typical telefilm stuff, full of flashbacks and melodrama. But Sargent has made a message film spanning decades that feels understated and accomplished.
