Amistad Interviews

I was slightly shaken after watching that little bit of Amistad in class this past week to the point where I started wondering how the actors felt about playing various characters. I ended up finding some interviews online of Morgan Freeman (Theodore Joadson) and Anthony Hopkins (John Quincy Adams). Both actors talk about the story, their respective characters, history's role in shaping the future, the meaning of freedom, and the overall significance of certain scenes.

Hopkins: https://youtu.be/s8ccLS1lniY
Neither videos are too long so I'd check both of them out.
