Thanks to Fox Searchlight here’s a new TV spot of 12 Years a Slave, the upcoming biography drama movie directed by Steve McQueen and starring Chiwetel Ejiofor:
12 YEARS A SLAVE
Based on the true story of Solomon Northup.
He was abducted. He was enslaved. But never defeated!
“12 YEARS A SLAVE is based on an incredible true story of one man’ s fight for survival and freedom. In the pre-Civil War United States, Solomon Northup (Chiwetel Ejiofor), a free black man from upstate New York, is abducted and sold into slavery. Facing cruelty (personified by a malevolent slave owner, portrayed by Michael Fassbender), as well as unexpected kindnesses, Solomon struggles not only to stay alive, but to retain his dignity. In the twelfth year of his unforgettable odyssey, Solomon’ s chance meeting with a Canadian abolitionist (Brad Pitt) will forever alter his life.”
Unfortunately slavery is not a thing from the past… I’ve checked on Wikipedia: there are still an estimated 27 million slaves worldwide! God, man is still wolf to man!
In theaters: October 18, 2013.

For those who haven’t read the Silver Chair, the story takes place years after Voyage of The Dawn Treader. The book follows Eustace (played in Dawn Treader by Will Poulter) and classmate Jill Pole: they are called back to Narnia by the godly lion Aslan on a mission to help the King Caspian (previously played by Ben Barnes) find his missing son.
