Critics widely praised Albert Finney as the eccentric John Newton (author of the hymn) and Benedict Cumberbatch as William Pitt the Younger. The "Iffy" Bits:
Some find it "slow" or "stuffy" due to its focus on political debate.
Contains mild profanity, historical depictions of slavery's cruelty, and a scene of a horse being beaten. Amazing Grace (2018)
This film stars Ioan Gruffudd as William Wilberforce, the British MP who fought for decades to end the slave trade in the British Empire.
This documentary captures Aretha Franklin recording her legendary gospel album at the New Temple Missionary Baptist Church in 1972. Amazing Grace YIFY
A stately, inspirational historical drama. It balances the "slow march of progress" in Parliament with Wilberforce's personal spiritual struggles.
It has been criticized as a "White Savior" narrative that sidelines Black activists like Olaudah Equiano and misses deeper historical context.
" Amazing Grace " is a title shared by two major films often found on platforms like YIFY: the about William Wilberforce and the 2018 concert documentary featuring Aretha Franklin. Amazing Grace (2006)
