    Good historic movie!

    Title: 12 years a slave

    Realease: 2013

    Director: Steve Mqcueen

    Runtime: 2 t 14 m

    Main actors: Chiwetel Eijfor was the main character and played Solomon Northup/ platt.

    Its about a free afro american who has a family of three, who went out too play his
    violin. Then the guys who hired him to played the violin sold him. And then after that he
    was a slave for 12 years. And had different slave owners.

    I did not like the way of the colloring of the movie because it was blurry and dark collors.

    i liked the way they filmed the maincharacter althought they had many unecesery long
    boring cuts.

    i like how they showed how brutall it was for all the slaves but maybe some cutseens
    was a bit too much

    The main character was a verry good actor because he seeme like it was so real.

    Iliked the story and how it was made into a movie so long after.

    In the end i think that might be one of the best true story movies ive seen.

    il give it 8/10
