Episode 82: 12 Years a Slave (2013)


Released 10 March 2021


For this episode, we watched 12 Years A Slave,
written by John Ridley, from the memoir by Solomon Northup. The
director was Steve McQueen with music by Hans Zimmer and
cinematography by Sean Bobbitt and the stars were Chiwetel
Ejiofor, Michael Fassbender, Benedict Cumberbatch, Paul Dano,
Paul Giamatti, and Lupita Nyong’o. As is fairly typical for this
period, as well as Best Picture it only won two other awards –
adapted screenplay and Best Supporting Actress for Nyong’o.
