"One of TV's All Time Best." - Leonard Maltin

This highly acclaimed drama, based on the epic novel by Ernest J. Gaines, eloquently covers the story of the Black Experience-from the Civil War to the civil rights movement-all told from the memories of a fictional 110-year-old slave played by Cicely Tyson. Ms.Tyson's tour-de-force performance, her most memorable, earned her an Emmy. All total this incredible made-for-TV film earned nine Emmys, including one for director Korty and one for Tracy Keenan Wynn's intelligent script.
