My classmate at Bard who launched a career as a film critic in 1967 at
the very time I was launching mine as a Trotskyist (sigh) has very much
the same take as me on all the "great" movies getting awards,
particularly this one:
12 Years a Slave –- an arthouse exploitation gift to masochistic guilty
liberals hungry for history lessons, some of whom consider any treatment
of American slavery by a black filmmaker to be an unprecedented event,
thus overlooking Charles Burnett’s far superior Nightjohn.
