Excellent movie displaying a powerful message

This movie displays such a powerful message that most people take for granted. In our nation we have a history of segregation, and for those of us who think it is all in our past - this movie shows us that it is not. The actual events took place in 2002. The movie makes us aware that racism is still around, and is something that is not good. One person can make a difference, and just knowing that gives hope that one day maybe people can look at other individuals and see them for who they are and not the color of our skin. I commend the real girl who took it upon herself to take action and try and change the world, at least one small town at a time in order to make it better. I would recommend that everyone should see this movie. It is very good!!!

Great movie

For One Night...It was a great movie. The movie hit on a very informative subject about the world in which we are currently living. It is still hard for me to believe that racism still is so prevalent in our day and age. The setting is very familiar to me since I grew up in New Orleans and had no idea of went on right in our own back yard. Glad to see something so sensitive exposed to our newer generations. The acting in the movie was great. The kids seem to be into their characters. Wardrobe was in excellent taste. I especially liked Raven's best friend in the movie..Sela. She's a doll with lots of fiestiness to her;) I'd like to see her more in TV movies or rather on the big screen.

Not consistent

This was depicting a true story from 1970, the characters, sets and wardrobe were not consistent. Part of what makes history is, well, history. This story should have been told in the timeframe it actually happened in. The idea of a segregated prom being integrated was there, but the reality of the time period was not. The highschool and the students were right out of the early 2000's. When they were at school it was like a Disney made for TV movie, then all of a sudden the parents would show up and then we were in 1970?! It was all quite confusing. If the history were honored, the bravery and courage of the students would have all had been honored, instead it was more of a caricature.

Pooly plotted, unbelievable and inconsistent characters

There are two problems with this film. First it focuses on one student Brianna McCallister, almost exclusively devotes far too much to the reporter. We get to know a good deal more about the reporters father than any student other than Brianna. Something like this could not happen without the students sticking together and this is not shown beyond the most superficial level.

Secondly, none of the characters are written to be remotely consistent.

The result is a series of episodes that gives little feel for how a group of students might succeed in integrating their prom. There is a good story in the real events that this film is based on - this is not it.

Sometimes cliches are necessary.

This movie spoke about racism and how often it is swept under the rug. It needed to use such tools to have the audience pick their side. This film was so well written, directed and acted that it could've been an Oscar winner if it weren't a tv movie. The best part of the movie was watching the main character struggle with her chance to stand up even if it meant loved ones could get hurt. A hero worthy of admiring. Sometimes you have to fight for what you want and recieve a lot of losses. Tv movies rarely implement the consequences of one's effort to make change for the better. This movie is stupendous.
