Movie (Best release)of the Week/31 st Jan2014/Johnson Thomas 12 years a Slave(English) Rating: * * * * Steve McQueen (Hunger) directs from a script he co-wrote with John Ridley, based in part on Solomon Northup's memoir(true Story) about his life as a free man in the 1800’s , subsequent kidnap and enslaving and finally ending in his rescue by a Canadian abolitionist. This is a somber, hurtful almost poetic film that delivers the horrors of bondage with true grit!
