A UNITED KINGDOM


A United Kingdom is the true story of the forbidden love of King Seretse Khama of Botswana and Ruth Williams, a white woman from London, which caused an international uproar when they decided to marry just as apartheid was being introduced into South Africa in the late 1940's, a decision that altered the course of African history.  The movie is okay, not overwhelming but a good history film.  I give it a seven.  Stars David Oyelowa and Rosamund Pike.
