#Gifted hands movie
The events in the movie are all documented in "Gifted Hands" the book, and if anything, the book is more compelling than the film because one gets a sense of Carson's innate humanity in dealing with the circumstances and situations which forged his life. Much of the credit is due to a remarkable mother who believed in him and brother Curtis, setting them on a life long path of reading, learning and accomplishing things that others would think impossible. His is a remarkable journey proving that if someone like him, growing up in impoverished circumstances with little hope of a future, can actually rise above those surroundings to accomplish whatever he's determined to do. One needs to pick up the book upon which the movie is based, and read the Ben Carson story first hand. Reading some of the other reviews here, there are those who doubt that the Ben Carson story presented here is actually true. It will be interesting to see how far he goes in his quest and what tangible impact he makes on the political scene. To my mind, there's no finer human being on the planet than Carson, a soft spoken individual who strikes a chord with people when he speaks, especially with the common sense approach he takes to issues that plague current society.
