Summary:
"There are two sides to every story, the saying goes. For
Alex
Haley
, one side was Roots, the towering chronicle tracing seven generations of his mother'
s
family. The other side comes to the screen in
Alex
Haley
's
Queen
, the remarkable history of the paternal side of the author'
s
family. Oscar and Emmy winner Halle Berry plays
Queen
, daughter of a slave (Jasmine Guy) and a plantation owner (Tim Daly). During the years of the antebellum South, the Civil War, Reconstruction and beyond, she searches for a home in the two cultures of her heritage - and at times is shunned by both. But rejection and hate are no match for her unconquerable will. Ann-Margret, Danny Glover and Ossie Davis also star in this poignant, uplifting final chapter of the
Haley
legacy."--Container.
