12 YEARS A SLAVE (R) 134min 5:30 and 8:15
This exceptional and powerful film is an unflinching look at slavery in the US South in the mid-1800s. Based in part on his published memoirs, Soloman Northup (with a masterful portrayal by Chiwetel Ejiofor) is a free, educated Black man in upstate NY who makes a living as a musician. Lured to Washington DC with a promise of work, he is drugged, kidnapped, and sold as a slave, ending up on several plantations in Louisiana over the next dozen years. During his saga of survival, he fights to regain his dignity and his identity, determined to return to his family. Director Steve McQueen and screenwriter John Ridley have made a sobering masterpiece. This is the WINNER of last night's Golden Globe Award for Best Film Drama. trailer
