Until freedom is opportune.

Rating: 10/10 (22 September 2014)

Slavery was such an evil. an evil this world will never see again, the thought of con men selling free men. it was horrible. the reason i watched this movie was because of steve mcqueen. i know what he is capable of after watching shame and hunger, but when i was expecting a good movie, i got an amazing one. this move is my top 3. there's only ever 2 movies that moved me in a way this one has and they were shawshank and to kill a mockingbird, i knew of michael fassbender, i knew he was going to bring something to the table. and he delivered brilliantly, then i saw Chiwetel Ejiofor a person I've only seen briefly in the likes of love actually, 2012. at first i thought hmm, then i knew steve mcqueen wouldn't just pick anyone. i couldn't believe the performance i saw, never have i seen such meaning such a inspirational act. which has landed him on the world stage of probably the most finest actors. Lupita Nyong'o was another big surprise, the scene where solomon is about to leave and she runs up to him. this scene got me a terrible state as it reminded me when i left someone behind from when i left prison. a place where i was wrongly put there. i look forward to steve mcqueens future. it is so bright.
