The Birth Of A Nation



Very, very intense movie and at times hard to watch.  The movie follows a slave and preacher Nat Turner, whose financially strained owner, Samuel Turner, accepts an offer to use Nat's preaching to subdue unruly slaves.  As he witnesses countless atrocities against himself and his fellow slaves, Nat orchestrates an inspirational uprising in the hopes of leading his people to freedom.   I give the movie a seven.
