The Baddest Speechwriter of All (2026) Sunbdance 2026


Martin Luther King Jr.’s lawyer and speechwriter Clarence E. Jones talks about his relationship with his boss.

This film is an early entry on my Best of 2026 list. This is film about a man who wanted nothing to do with Martin Luther King and ended up getting talked into not only picking up the fight when king was killed.

This is a perfect example of less is more. Basically the film is just Jones telling his story while we see some photos and some animated recreations. It is nothing fancy or flashy, but it is exactly what the telling needed.

I absolutely loved this film. It's hell of a story perfectly told. It is also a story filled with hope which is exactly what we need these days 

I can not recommend this film any higher than this. You must see this film.
