Product Description
Its a generational story of a woman named Flora who survives the remnants of slavery to the 21 century. She was consider stubborn as a mule. I think that stubbornness is what made her the heartbeat of the family. She had the respect of her family and community

- Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2024EXCELLENT!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2021Love this family movie, that I believe that many can relate in part to its plot. 🙏Ciscely Tyson 🙏 was one of my favorite actresses of all time since childhood. "The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman had me jump out my 💺. Queen Latifah, Mario Van Peebles, Blair Underwood, and others really portrayed the struggles people and families endure with life, mentally, spiritually, and physically. This was definitely a numerous watched movie for past years.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2011This is a great video. I love all of the actors especially Blair Underwood and Cicely Tyson. I had this movie before but it was destroyed. It is a wonderful story about A woman who made mistakes in her past and did the best that she knew how to correct those mistakes and help her family through the hard times that they encountered. She had two sons; one that was taken away from her; and one that grew up in the home with her. The sons were jealous of each other because they both had what the other one wanted. They all learned to put their differences aside and be the family that the mother wanted in the end.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2010I loved this movie from the first time I watched it. I already purchased the movie once,but let someone else borrowed the movie and never got it back. When I seen it was for sale on Amazon I couldn't wait to purchase it. It was getting harder to find this disc ANYWHERE (even in the big chain stores like Walmart,Target,etc.)Erika Alexander,Ms. Tyson,Queen LaTifah,Mario Van Peoples, and Blair Underwood all are outstanding actresses and actors. This movie tells about the strengh a mother has to keep her family together. It will make you cry,angry, and happy throughout the entire movie. A great purchase for your dvd collection.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2009This is a wonderful movie (quality and all) that has a beautiful message attached not to spoil the movie but once you have seen this it will become very clear what life is all about. Given that this story is one that is very near and dear to me, I must say that this is a powerful movie and the information that is presented is one that will not be forgotten.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2012The dvd arrived in great time, and in great condition. I read one rating about this dealer which was not good, but the other ratings were good. That's why you have to try things for yourself. My item arrived faster than I have received a dvd from a seller before. I will be using them again. I am very satisfied.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2011As an African-American I am interested in movies about Black history, Black culture, and life during slavery and historical black events.
As a result I purchased about a dozen DVDs on various subject matter which I am just now getting around to viewing.
Another heartwarming story from Alex Haley the author of Roots. With flash backs to slavery time before WW II
A good educational look at African American life during the 1900's and during a period of the Vietnam War when I was active in the military myself. Blacks struggling to make a life for themselves and their family.
Good all around educational movie.

5.0 out of 5 stars A movie for my collection
I ordered this film for Black History month, and I really enjoyed this film. I found the concept of this film extremely good! It changed my perception of black history, history in general, the importance of family as an institution, and the underlying capacity to heal problems in the present day, regardless of colour race or creed.
