Full Plot Details

In 1997, Academy Award winning actor, Morgan Freeman, who lives in the Charleston, Mississippi community, offered to fund the first-ever integrated Senior Prom in the history of Charleston's one high school. His offer was ignored. In 2008, Morgan offered again... the East Tallahatchie County School Board accepted. In this town of 2,300 people, its high school of 415 black and white students has, to this day, always had separate proms: one black, one white prom. Our film follows the Charleston High senior class of 2008 preparing and attending their historic, first integrated prom, in the context of strong emotions, traditions, and conflict inherent in race relations in the community, and in the deep south. Some of the white parents maintained their whites-only prom.

Movie Reviews

Common Sense Media - 8/10 by Kari CroopInspiring docu tackles a tough topic: racism.
Jam! Movies - 5/10 by Liz BraunDespite the subject matter, Prom Night In Mississippi is surprisingly buoyant with the hope and joy of these kids.
Globe and Mail - 5/10 by Rick GroenMainly the film is obliged to circle around the absent centre of the conflict, the dark heart of the very issue under scrutiny. Consequently, like a skinny boy in an oversized tux, it has to pad.
User Review - 10/10 by Tinisha JWOW is all i can say. i guess when u live in california u take 4 granted our positive lifestyle. i'm so gald i don't have to deal with this rascism EVER.
User Review - 10/10 by Markus SExcellent documentary, the children were very comfortable in front of the camera.
User Review - 10/10 by Lisa BExcellent documentary, the children were very comfortable in front of the camera.
User Review - 10/10 by Nicole GAmazing film, its hard to believe things like that still even happen....I think Morgan Freeman is a great person for stepping up to the plate and changing that.....well, well worth a watch....
User Review - 10/10 by Colleen TWow! I am shocked that there are really places where such racism exists, I am so blessed to live where I do where this on majority does not exist, and not to this extent I just hope that these people can over come these racist ideas that are holding them down
User Review - 10/10 by John BExcellent documentery!I can't believe that schools would still have 2 proms!I applaud Morgan Freemen for changing that!
User Review - 10/10 by Patience WThis movie was such a shock to me because I, and I'm sure many others, had no idea that something like this could still be going on. It is evident that racism still exists in our world and it probably, unfortunately, will always exist. But to still have a segregated prom in ithe 21st century is amazing to me. This is a great documentary and I truly recommend that others see it because it really shows how we stiil have a long way to go in our fight against hate, prejudice, and other forms of total ignorance.
