Help Us Help You

In the spirit of The Help and The Blind Side comes a heart-stirringly, head-shakingly inspirational movie about African Americans and the white people who helped them overcome the adversity of other white people. We all know the story of Martin Luther King, Jr. and his dream, but few know the tale of the two Caucasians who made that dream a reality. Bradley Cooper and Jesse Eisenberg are all the King's men in a movie that's guaranteed to make audiences and Academy members feel great that we finally solved that whole ''race thing.''
