kdtoverbooked 's review for:

12 Years a Slave by Solomon Northup

3.0

---

This narrative reveals excerpts from one man's life after he was taken out of liberty and thrown into bonds of slavery. It made me ponder the human spirit and how much popular opinion controls our society. For me, I think this may be on the few times that I will enjoy the movie more than the book. I hope Hollywood stayed true to the vision that Northup clearly leaves the reader with.
