12 Years a Slave

white people only like this movie because they feel personally responsible for slavery

this movie doesn’t shy away from depicting the horrific but yet realistic truth about slavery and afro-american history. our duty of never forgetting this past drives us to actively learn from this powerful movie. it is a must seen.

Just phenomenal acting all around. Every shot of this movie is intentional.

Yes movies like this are uncomfortable to watch, being confronted with history can be uncomfortable. But do yourself a favor and be uncomfortable for 2 hours of your life.

Absolutely and unbelievably realistic film! Painful to watch At times (True Story), powerful performances by all involved 9/10 👏. Currently streaming on Film4 🍿

Very well made movie, the actors were incredible. But what a terrible, terrible place and time. The ending definitely made me cry but it was so bittersweet too. 4 out of 5 stars!
