Everyone seems to know just where they were when they heard of a few very special events...The first landing on the moon, the death of JFK, the death of Bobby Kennedy, the death of Princess Di, and this is another of them. I was touring Europe with my family and we were unpacking the car at a camp on Lido de Iesolo, the mainland beside Venice. The news over the car radio was enough for us to pause for several minutes as we digested the enormity of the event. There have been several good documentaries on TV or in the movie houses about the death of Martin Luther King. I think that this is the best one I have seen. We were lucky enough to have one of the directors to hold a Q&A session after the screening at the Auckland Int'l Film Festival this year; I asked him the question "Did you just think of the title as an apt one or did you think of its correlation to "Citizen Kane" and also another movie "Citizen Cohn"...about Roy Cohn"?" The director, Nolan Walker, spoke eloquently about the correlation and said that MLK was not only a citizen of the USA but was a citizen of the world and that he tried his best to improve the world. I think the majority would agree with that. The film was very well edited, with a lot of the major players in the years prior to 1968 taking part in the movie, although Coretta did not take part. It dealt, fairly and well, with the controversial parts of King's life, such as his womanising. The packed audience was enthralled by the documentary and by Nolan Walker's eloquence afterwards.
