"You Fit The Description Given." - 12 Years A Slave #shorts #12yearsaslave #movie #moviescene #scene

12 Years a Slave is a 2013 biographical drama film directed by Steve McQueen from a screenplay by John Ridley, based on the 1853 slave memoir Twelve Years a Slave by Solomon Northup, an African American man who was kidnapped in Washington, D.C. by two conmen in 1841 and sold into slavery. He was put to work on plantations in the state of Louisiana for 12 years before being released. The first scholarly edition of David Wilson's version of Northup's story was co-edited in 1968 by Sue Eakin and Joseph Logsdon.

"Free him!"
"Well now let's not use that kind of language...."

[FatherGarcía]

Schindler's List, to The Pianist, to Full Metal Jacket, and now to 12 Years A Slave.

It’s crazy that when we 1st meet Clemens, he seemed like the smartest guy on the boat (besides Solomon) but when he sees his master he immediately goes back to playing his little facade. He is a survivalist after all. Never even looked back cuz he knew those guys were doomed.

[CorundumDevil]

"My name isn't Platt."
*"Bruh if it gets you off this boat, your name is Platt."*

[CorundumDevil]

"My name is not Platt."
*"My brother in Christ, are you being serious right now"*

[zillain]

If he’s that desperate to go back with that slave master, it inarguably displays how horrible it must have been where he was at. But that’s sort of part of slavery, at a certain point the only choice they have is which hell to occupy. Can’t blame the man for choosing the hell less hot.

edit: although i hear what some of yall are saying, I just dont find it productive to look for silver linings in slavery. Regardless of how “good” one slave might have it, he’s still property, he’s still not free to make his own choices, he’s still basically a tool for someone else to use. It can be nothing but BJ’s and pizza, it don’t matter, the dehumanization/usage of a person is still horrible in every sense of the word(s). I don’t feel like y’all are “defending slavery” or something crazy like that, I just think you have an askew definition of what it really means to be “free.” Comfortable and free are not the same thing at all.

Mad that Paul Giamatti didn't even know the cameras were rolling

[Adorned-Gambit-]

“John Adam’s sure won’t messing around”

[edwardd]

The saddest movie I’ve ever seen. What’s even sadder, is that his end is unknown.

[leviyouler]

He couldn't say "MASSER" fast enough, and that hug was wild 😂😂😂

[bananataco]

That guy must treat Clemens pretty well for him to hug him like that

[xtgcsvo]

At this point I'm gonna watch the whole film through youtube shorts.

[mattjack]

Clemens was happy as fuck! He was like, "Nah i dunno him, c'mon massah, let's go!"

[jackelewish]

Every video clip from a movie about slavery has the SAME exact joke made on the top comments. "This actor didnt even know the cameras was rolling" or some version of that. Its amazing how it is ALLWAYS in the top 10 comments every time.

[georgelanders]

What is really disturbing is that this was just a typical day, the ones who questioned the morality were by far outnumbered by those who didn't

[pixiesouter]

Edit: I'm putting my edit before my comment as it seems more important.
I disagree strongly with my own comment. Yes, obviously slavery is bad. But there are many ways to be a good person in a bad situation. Bad slave owners existed. But alongside them were people just trying to live in the world they found themselves in. I've educated myself on the many people who took part in the slave trade specifically for the purpose of improving the lives of the people they purchased. I've said myself on many occasions and that you can't view history through a modern lens, and yet I made that exact mistake in this comment. Viewing this situation with the privilege of knowing who history sided with.
Real life is more nuanced than I have given credit for and if anyone was offended by my original comment, I'm sorry, I was wrong.










Just to be clear, this clip does not in any way imply Mr. Jonus Ray was a "good" slave owner, or even a good person. The good people of that day and age were fighting to abolish slavery, not profiting from it.
Mr. Clemmins Ray simply understood that being a valued piece of equipment was preferable to whatever lay ahead on that boat.
Or is this the same thinking that leads people to assume people who show the most basic care to a carriage horse is a "good" horse owner? Not working your property to death too quickly is just good business sense. Retrieving a stolen item of property is just good business sense. A good business man does not equate to a good man.

[Ah-Sol]

It’s disgusting how we treated our fellow man

[Tunda]

Master Ray must be from the north. He just wanted a permanent employee

[Jacksonmoonstar]

The way the man hugged and comforted the slave is just so heartwarming yet depressing at the same time
