My family misses attending movies more than anything and because of Covid-19 more and more Theaters are closing. When I get the opportunity to watch a movie or trailer online I take the time to watch them as it allows Charlie and I the opportunity to bond.
Before Charlie and I go watch the latest trailer I would like to share ONE NIGHT IN MIAMI… with you and your family. If you watch the trailer leave me a comment and let me know what you think of the movie and why.

On one incredible night in 1964, four icons of sports, music, and activism gathered to celebrate one of the biggest upsets in boxing history. When underdog Cassius Clay, soon to be called Muhammad Ali, (Eli Goree), defeats heavy weight champion Sonny Liston at the Miami Convention Hall.
Clay memorialized the event with three of his friends: Malcolm X (Kingsley Ben-Adir), Sam Cooke (Leslie Odom Jr.) and Jim Brown (Aldis Hodge).
Based on the award-winning play of the same name, and directed by Regina King, One Night In Miami… is a fictional account inspired by the historic night these four formidable figures spent together.
It looks at the struggles these men faced and the vital role they each played in the Civil Rights Movement and cultural upheaval of the 1960s. More than 40 years later, their conversations on racial injustice, religion, and personal responsibility still resonate. 114 Minutes | Rated R
