There are so many soso slave movies and this one directed by a foreigner to boot. Did not deserve an Oscar.

Roots is the most heart wrenching saddest movie ever. Take any one episode, its a masterpiece in acting and direction. Remember Kissy being taken away?

Seemed predictable, to me. I'll watch it, but if it has some - tinear 17:39:11 04/16/14 (5)
uplifting theme, I'm going to hate it. Slavery didn't have a bright side. NO one suffered it and triumphed. That's the fact. Sometimes, shit happens. Falsifying history to make suffering noble isn't realistic.
Rant over, I'll see it.

  ...is not predictable?
  
  You mean Redford dies?

- True story, it is what it is. Uplifting? One would be hard pressed to find an uplifting theme - Road Warrior 18:37:18 04/16/14 (2)
  bad guys played as bad to the bone, not eccentric miscreants. Slaves were most definitely not singing Camptown Ladies whilst working in the fields.
