1841-1853, twelve years as a slave.
In 1853, it was 8 years before the Civil War broke out, and 12 years before the abolition of slavery. In other words, for a long time after the male owner was "saved", slavery was still reasonable and legal in the South.
Movies are the subject of easy attention and liking. A free black man was easily trafficked into a black slave and returned home on the belief that "I am a free man" during the twelve years of oppression without freedom.
But don't tell me that he survived on the belief that he must go home to see his wife and children. It's very simple. Just look at the "natural" black slaves, and those who don't resist will know. They also have separated wives and children, but they are not "free people", they will always be black slaves in the south, and they are rebellious? !
Therefore, this is despair in the system. This kind of despair makes individuals feel that they will always be powerless.
Despair:
1. For the first time, the male protagonist truly realized that he was going to be a black slave and could no longer live well.
2. The letter that cannot be sent is burned.
3. Forced to be sold separately from their young sons and daughters to different slavery black mothers who cry all day long.
4. Passy’s despair is the most moving. She couldn't stand it when she was whipped and ripped apart.
After the hero is rescued, Passy’s despair is estimated to be unable to keep her alive. Therefore, Passy's final ending must still be dead, and the poor thing is that he can't commit suicide if he wants to die.
watching the movie, you will think that the male protagonist has been rescued, but what about the other black slaves? Just like when you watch an anti-fascist movie, the protagonist escapes from the concentration camp and is rescued. What about the others? The answer is naturally clear, and the ending is already doomed.
(Movies thought of rescue and escape: Colony of Dignity 2015)
The two slave owners in the film are also highlights. Brad Pitt also came to rescue the hero with a soy sauce.
There are more than one empty shots in the film.
The long shot in the film that is not to be ignored, the male protagonist is hanging, and the other slaves are blind and powerless.
This free world.
