Belle



A period drama based on fact traces the life of Dido Elizabeth Belle, a biracial girl born in 1761 to a British admiral father and an African mother.  Raised by her great uncle, Dido finds her place in society despite her mixed ethnicity.  The movie tastefully portrays society of that day.  The movie  is well done and fascinating.  I give it an 8.  Stars Gugu Mbath- Raw, Penelope Wilton, Miranda Richardson and Tom Wilkinson.
