  1. 12 year a slave - pretty devastating overall, the acting was great (especially fassbender, who plays the most interesting character in the film), there are many incredible scenes and it mostly manages to avoid cliches and goes into the the guts (psychological and sociological aspects) of slavery instead of just dramatization. i can't tell if periodization was done right because i'm not familiar with u.s history at all but it felt very well done to me anyway. there were some jarring and strange choices in regards to editing and music though (mostly in the beginning), and that fucking brad-pitt-the-film's-producer-speech that felt like it came from a different movie.

    i think that the appearence of Brad Pitt in the movie was ok - he looked at bit speechless and sheepish when confronted with Epps (Fassbender)not at all hero-like.

     

    This is going to be one of my fave picture 2014. Hope it wins loads of Oscars.
