12 years a slave review

In a review of the film "12 Years a Slave" published by The Guardian and written by Robbie Collin, the historical accuracy and "enumeration of the everyday horrors" of slavery are brought to the audiences attention as he explains why it is "the best film that was yet to be made about American slavery." The historical accuracy is best seen in the minute interactions between Solomon and the slave owners and overseers, such as when the overseer at Ford's plantation attempts and fails to lynch Solomon. And while many things are omitted in a 2 hour documentation of 12 years of insanity, many of the sickening occurrences that were part of the daily life of a slave, such as the brutal work in the sugar plantation fields, and Solomon being forced to accomplice the overseer in torturing his fellow slave patsy, the audience gets a hard hitting personal view of just what life in slavery was like.
