Fascinating topic (pre-Civil War Creole life) is marred by trite dialogue. Many superb Afro-American actors inhabit this Dynasty-Blue&Gray-Roots clone. Good location shooting in Canada. Tragic story receives superficial treatment, but worth seeing just for the star-power. However, a well-handled but brutal sex scene in the second half made it very uncomfortable for me to watch it with my teen-age children.
