Solomon Northup Experiences Published In 1853

Rating: 10/10 (17 March 2016)

Based on the 1853 novel by ex slave and freeman Solomon Northup. This pre American civil war exposure of slavery 150 years ago in the united States. Requires a very strong heart and a stronger stomach for violence. This is without question one of the most important but also the most gut wrenching emotionally packed films ever to obtain the BEST PICTURE Oscar. An amazing piece of artistic cinema, both horrible and entertaining. How, can that be so? All performances are truly stunning while the craft involved is simply breath taking. A Truly AMAZING film. Brilliant Cinema!Directed with extreme brilliance by Brit former artist Steve McQueen and with a sensational cast who deliver astonishing performances from the already famous and the soon to be alike, This is a very important film every one shoud see.
