See, this is why I love film and writers and directors not afraid to talk about the "little guy" or "untold stories". I didn't even know about Shields Green until I saw this movie. I hear people saying it's not historically accurate, okay cool, well let me go google and hit the library so I can get the correct information about this person. Either way, he sounded brave and any slave during that time that got away from the devils that actually did this to people gets a kudos from me. Only reason I didn't give this movie a 10 is because of the poor editing and like one reviewer said, I wish it was longer. I wish MORE was going on and it wasn't quickly carried out. Honestly as a fiction writer myself I would have added all the little quirks and maybe even MORE stuff that didn't happen, just cus. It's a movie people give the film a break from it being REAL. LOL! Love the actors too!
