In Selma, David Oyelowo rose to the heights of giving the most excellent and highly credible performance of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., as he captured the charisma of the famed leader and highlighted his vulnerable side. The entire show of Oyelowo's delivering Dr. King's speeches with dramatic flair and conviction was worthy of total praise. He may not have been nominated for an Academy Award for his magnificent performance, but it's certainly a performance worthy to watch.
