Twelve years as a slave is also divided into 369 grades? Yes, the various characters that appeared in Twelve Years a Slave told us that kindness is indeed divided into 369 grades. In my eyes, the biggest success of this film is that everyone's view of good and evil is vividly displayed. The actors portray the characters related to the "slave industry" under the times, whether they are kind, or dehumanize, or Good and evil are intertwined, and the highlights are vividly and vividly. Psychopaths, Planters Epps Who Totally Enjoy Blacks As Their Puppy
Epps, who does all kinds of evil, doesn't treat black slaves as human beings at all. He can vent and ravage at will. His natural sense of superiority makes him feel that this white skin is extraordinarily high. ford's chief carpenter thebes
The character of Thebes is actually a small person, just a carpenter of the Ford family, but because of the influence of slavery in the current society, he eventually becomes a disgusting character who is arrogant and treats black slaves as dogs and mice. Hamilton and Brown who trafficked slaves:
Leaker Anusby:
I think traffickers and leakers belong to the same kind of people. They are not completely dehumanized. They have a side that seems to be suddenly discovered by their conscience, but they are willing to give up their seemingly non-existent humanity for the sake of profit. The author Anus is more obvious than his body. I believe these words of his are from the heart, but they still can't keep their moral bottom line. I can only say that if they are tortured in their hearts, they are completely self-inflicted! Further down is actually a real kindness in the heart, but limited by the social ecology at the time, and the long-term impact of slavery, the kind but not completely kind Mr. Ford:
and Mr. Ford's overseer, Mr. Chapin
In fact, they all really have their own moral standards, but in our opinion, they are not doing well enough. Here is Mr. Ford as an example. In fact, he is very compassionate in his heart, but limited by the environment at that time, It looks awkward, for example: He doesn't want the black mother and son to be separated, so he really wants to buy the little girl who is useless to him, but the price of the little girl is very expensive, he can accept it with peace of mind, well, then I'll just sell his mother; He didn't want to see Solomon killed by his carpenter, so he rescued Solomon, but only threw him on the floor full of scars; He didn't want Solomon to be killed by his carpenter The wooden box took revenge, but instead of killing the cruel carpenter, he chose to transfer Solomon to a more cruel slave owner, Epps, who probably thought: oh god, I did it, I can do everything, God bless The poor nigger. The same is true for the overseer Chapin. He can forcefully stop the carpenter from hanging Solomon, but he can watch Solomon hanged by him for a whole day. This may be Mr. Chapin's moral bottom line. As long as I don't die, I just do what I can. But hard work always pays off, persistence always pays off, Solomon finally met his Mr. Bass:
Mr. Bass is really a thinker who transcends the social system and the dark reality. Although he is a small person, he has the courage to doubt the world, and he is selfless and does not ask his heart to take risks. He thinks it is right. He talked about Solomon, who met by chance. This kind of person is actually particularly dazzling in the dark environment. He has little ability. He will be a thinker. He will help the people he has met through his small behavior. With great ability, he will be a A revolutionary, bring everyone to light up the darkness of the moment. Thanks again to the actors, let me really see how cruel the dark slavery system is. Maybe the meaning of the movie is like this. The directors, screenwriters, and actors work together to bring us and the present with their outstanding cultural quality and industry experience. The precious thoughts of society are left blank.
