Masterfully assembled from a wealth of archival footage, the Oscar® nominated King: A Filmed Record... Montgomery To Memphis follows Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. from 1955 to 1968, in his rise from regional activist to world-renowned leader of the Civil Rights movement. Rare footage of Dr. King's speeches, protests, and arrests are interspersed with commentary from high-profile supporters of the cause.

Restored to its original full-length by the Library of Congress, this complete, uncut version of King is a monumental experience – a cinematic national treasure that provides both an appreciation of the personal challenges he endured as well as a reminder of the cultural and social legacy he left for us to act upon and protect. Admission to this annual screening is free of charge. (185 minutes with intermission)
