| Synopsis
|
In depicting American slavery, Hollywood has long left some of
the most brutal realities largely unseen. But the filmmakers behind
12 Years a Slave tried not to flinch in showing the full system of
human subjugation. Jeffrey Brown talks to screenwriter John Ridley
about the challenge of humanizing a dehumanizing institution.
