The Trailer For Loving, the True Story of an Early Interracial Marriage, Is Upsetting and Uplifting

Joel Edgerton and Ruth Negga (whom Preacher fans may recognize as Tulip) are the stars of Loving, a film you may not have heard a lot about — yet. It's the true story of Richard (Edgerton) and Mildred Loving (Negga), the couple who paved the way for interracial marriage in the United States. The 1958, the couple traveled to Washington DC to get married, but were prosecuted and harassed when they returned home to Virginia, where interracial marriage was illegal. The poignant trailer is particularly (and unfortunately) timely because of current events in the country.
