Belle Film Trailer (YouTube.com)
Belle is inspired by the true story of Dido Elizabeth Belle (Gugu
Mbatha-Raw), the illegitimate mixed race daughter of a Royal Navy
Admiral. Raised by her aristocratic great-uncle Lord Mansfield (Tom
Wilkinson) and his wife (Emily Watson), Belle's lineage affords her
certain privileges, yet the color of her skin prevents her from fully
participating in the traditions of her social standing. Left to wonder
if she will ever find love, Belle falls for an idealistic young vicar's
son bent on change who, with her help, shapes Lord Mansfield's role as
Lord Chief Justice to end slavery in England.
