Amistad
Amistad
En gruppe afrikanske slaver overtager deres herres skib og forsøger at vende tilbage til deres elskede hjemland. Men da skibet bliver generobret, bringes fangerne til Amerika, hvor de bliver anklaget for mord og smidt i fængsel. Slavernes kamp tiltrækker en hel nations opmærksomhed og sætter spørgsmålstegn ved selve grundlaget for det amerikanske retssystem. Dette er en kamp for alle menneskers basale ret til frihed.

As any true American will tell you, it is the independence of our courts that keep us free.
I don’t think I had seen this since it first came out, so I didn’t remember much about it other than “Give us us Free!” Had totally forgotten that McConaughey was even in it, as a lawyer no less. Compelling drama, and star-making performance from Djimon Hounsou. For a film with an important historical account, I thought it was kind of funny that one of the final shots was a young Anna Paquin jumping on a bed (as Isabella II, the Queen of Spain).
