In the second fall season movie about a famous interracial marriage in history, Oyelowo and Pike star as Seretse Khama and Ruth Williams Khama, the couple whose marriage rocked South Africa under apartheid in the late 1940's and 50's. This film is premiering at the London Film Festival in October, but usually when there are two films of a competing theme, one of them gets a leg up. I have a feeling Loving will the movie that sets sail of these two, but that may be because I can tell the performances of Joel Edgerton and Ruth Negga are more of the showcase sort. This looks more like a romanticized love story, so it may be seen as lighter. Then again, who knows? Trailers can be deceiving.
