So as we enter Oscar season it becomes clear that a certain kind of film begins to dominate our cinema screens. Movies that are aiming for one of those nice shiny statues are out in force in the UK and one of the pack leaders stands in the form of Steve McQueen’s 12 Years a Slave. It’s a movie that tells the remarkable true story of Solomon Northup, a free black man who was kidnapped and sold into slavery in the early 1800’s. It was nominated for 9 awards by the Academy and has so far appeared to receive universal acclaim.
