Review of Amistad (1997) by Lindsay W — 23 Mar 2009
A compelling story with a solid and talented cast. Yet it goes so far as to make many of the historical figures look like saints, and is a little too "feel good" for a slave trade film. Spielberg doesn't flinch from showing some gruesomeness on the slave ships, but takes a PG look at America.
