Follywood

AITOOW has read 12 Years A Slave? Funny thing. He writes all the time that he doesn't seek to sensationalize the experience. Yet, that is exactly what Hollywood did. I'm not saying the following didn't happen ever, but, it didn't happen in the book. 1. No rape of the woman in the ship in the beginning. 2. No making him strip down when first captured. 3. No sex with another slave when he was a slave. 4. No hitting Patsy in the head with a bottle. 5. He also says that he received bruises from whippings. I'm not sure if I read that right, but, it inferred that not every lash cut into the skin. There are alot of other inconsistencies. I just hate these salacious perversions of fact to foment racism.
