    I was really hoping to love this movie, but it was all over the place. The acting was horrible. Too many storylines that went nowhere. I'm grateful it was less than a 2 hour watch.

    I truly enjoyed this story that gives insight into an area of New Orleans history that is been riddled in mystery and obscurity and I feel that Vanessa Williams did an excellent job with her portrayal of Henriette. Lovers of historical romance and New Orleans will especially enjoy this moving tale.

    As far as made-for-TV dramas go this one was pretty good. The story was laid out in a sad and heartbreaking way and even the happy ending was bittersweet.

    Pre abolistion of Slavery period film about creoles and the courage of one woman to stand up to the system. A moral tale of love, of serving God and ones fellow man. A sad,moving story.

    A story not often told of the Old Orleans, this tells us where the Creoles came from. I love this movie. Vanessa Williams Gil Bellows and Diahann Caroll were amazing. A little known story but one of my absolute favorites.
