San Quentin's Narrative on Slavery



About two weeks ago, i was watched Django Unchained. The Movie was
done by Quentin Tarantino and is yet another is his retinue of classic or masterful
presentation of the great controversial debate on slavery.

Directors have a signature with which they present their material and he
is no exception. In my view, he uses dry humor with a mix of brutal violence as well
as an A-Class list of actors.  Samuel Jackson, Jamie Foxx, Leonardo De Caprio to name just
a few.

I guess this is often the purpose of laughter and ludeness. They tend to occur where the
writer or director needs to have certain points emphasized.
Samuel Jackson creeps into the picture with his swagger and skill and
plays the role of the 'high level servant'. Jamie Foxx takes on the role of Django who
goes on a quest of sorts and has to deal with dilemma of making tough choices.
Leonardo De Caprio plays a very convincing Plantation owner whose mood swings
seem to be tempered by his faithful servant (in this case played by Samuel
Jackson). the Director is able to skillfully force you into thinking twice about the judgements you make about the perpetrators and the puppets.  He manages to get you laughing and crying at the same time.

Tarantino uses his skill to present and complex and trying subject

In my view, a good movie will embed itself in your sub-conscious. It makes time travel possible
and real.
