See this film is really a painful experience brewing from the beginning to the mood in the theater in tears after reading that now only see the other users to write comments heart will not help but burst of Sorrow skill is the film itself

first scene is very style of a group of slaves holding a sickle white farmer taught how to listen to the face misery harvesting crops even without being shackled but still powerless to resist them know revolt in this brutal regime no doubt get out is quite simply die

second In the scene, a black female slave could not suppress the release of her inner desires, forcing the male protagonist to help herself reach an orgasm while a large area of ​​black slaves were sleeping, and then sobbed and turned back, so there is no better than a woman who can't speak in a humid environment. crying scene also repressed the

actor thought of his distant wife thought they had a better picture in the pillow four eyes staring as if just yesterday seem to have separated so far

and the story meanders into slavery carrying 12

men The protagonist was originally a free man in the north but was trafficked to the south by slave owners. In the process, I witnessed countless filthy crimes. His testimony to the traffickers was only a ruthless whipping of black women who had to endure in order to reunite with their children. The slave trader molested him, someone took a knife in the conflict, and others threw his body into the water and said it was a relief for him, because when a person lives without dignity, he is really not as good as a dead one, which

is not bad. Then the hero's day is already It cannot be summed up with pain. If the physical loss caused by day farming can be restored after overnight rest, then the beautiful vision of this world in my heart is gradually being cruelly eaten away, how can it be described in the word despair?

One of the most ironic scenes appeared in the film. A slave overseer sang the black slave, the black slave is wonderful, the black slave ran to hang the vulgar tune, accompanied by the black slave's hard farming, undoubtedly it is a complete distortion of their spirit,

so most of them People choose to escape, they start to abandon their compassion for others' pain. Only in this way can they stay and breathe in this world a little calmer.

So we see that when the male protagonist is lifted by a rope, he can only extend his only life by tapping his toes. Other black slaves are just passing their normal day.

However, it is not just the black slaves who are truly distorted in their personality. Because of the sadistic role given to them by the system, the slave owners gave up a considerable number of them to give up their compassion for humans. They were immersed in the joy of black slave farming. They were immersed in the pleasure of flogging black slaves. They needed this kind of adoption. The sense of existence brought by authority, but they have long been inferior

to Uncle Fa. The character is a bastard that makes people love and hate. His powerful possessiveness that he cannot hold on himself has gradually eroded his heart, his slave girl Patsey, who loves him, but at the same time he is ashamed of this. In a deformed relationship, Patsey couldn’t fall in love with someone who might beat herself up at any time. It’s not a normal kind of love. Her needs are simple and she doesn’t even need to be loved at all. She only hopes to live a free life, even if she is just like a little white girl. Having played around the house or having a leisurely afternoon tea, she only regards Uncle Fa’s sexual intercourse with her as something that must be done to survive. She can only silently endure all the malice

that Uncle Fa’s wife has attacked her because of jealousy. The contradiction finally broke out. Uncle Fa could no longer bear that Patsey couldn’t really belong to him in the soul, and the soap that fell on the floor was like the last scene of a dancer in the dark, and the glasses fell in front of the audience. The phantom in the individual’s heart was torn apart.

Finally, the male protagonist proved his identity and left the slave farm. But as Patsey fell behind the carriage, we know how helpless it is. The fate of how many black slaves has not changed. They still farm. Alone still the same as the next whipping existence and meaning in this world can not find any

videos with the perspective of the actor recorded a hundred years ago was very powerful in real life in the south of the United States rightly accused of slavery

    Restraint, balance, consideration, and dignity meet all the requirements of classical aesthetics. This politically correct and sensitive genre can only be shot like this. I really like a few scenes in the dark background. The light and shadow effects are very strong in the "classical" style. It would be more interesting if the whole movie was shot like this-but would this reduce the realistic skinny of the "true story adaptation"? ...This kind of film is the kind that has no complaints and no intention to repeat.

12 Years a Slave quotes

  • Tibeats: My name is John Tibeats, William Ford's chief carpenter. You will refer to me as Master. Mister Chapin is the overseer on this plantation. He is responsible for all of Ford's property. You too will refer to him as Master. This plantation covers many hundreds of acres, and you will traverse the Texas road between the forest site and the sawmill in double time. Any clever nigger on that path that gets a little light-footed, I will remind him that on one side men and bloodhounds patrol the border and on the other the bayou provides a hard living, with alligators and little to eat or drink that won't kill you. No slave has escaped here with his life. You're here to work niggers, so let's commence.

  • Tibeats: [singing] Nigger run, nigger flew/Nigger tore his shirt in two/Run, run, the pattyroller git you/Run nigger run, well ya better get away. That's right, like you mean it. Nigger run, run so fast/Stove his head in a hornet's nest/Run, run, the pattyroller git you/Run nigger, run, well ya bette git away/Run, nigger, run, the pattyroller git you/Run nigger run, well ya better git away/Some folks say a nigger don't steal/well I caught three in my cornfield/One had a bushel and one had a peck/and one had a rope being hung around his neck/Run nigger run/ the pattyroller git you/Run nigger run, well ya better get away/Hey, Mr. Pattyroller, don't catch me/Catch that nigger behind that tree!/Run nigger run, the pattyroller get you/Run nigger run, well ya better get away.
