Sam Neill, Carmen Ejogo, Diahann Carroll. The historical scandal between President Thomas Jefferson and the slave girl Sally, jumps onto the screen with a shocking presence. Jefferson, engaged in a 39-year affair with Ms. Hemings, allegedly fathered at least one, if not all six, of Sally's children. This fictionalized made-for-TV movie packs a powerful punch about love that endured and triumphed in the face of horrific prejudice. 2000/color/171 min/NR/fullscreen.
