The rest of the violence was, I thought, essential to the film in order to portray the absolute horror of what was done to the slaves- absolutely inhuman, appalling. The performances were amazing- casting was inspired, I never would have pictured Dicaprio in that role but he pulled it off. The 2 hours and 45 min flew by! I'm liking Tarantino's "underdog gets revenge" theme of late. Wonder who's next?
Rumor has it that he plans to do a black WWII version of Inglorious Basterds. With African-American GIs taking on the German NAZIs, white supremacists in US uniforms, etc. called Killer Crow. http://thegrio.com/2012/12/28/killer...wwii-soldiers/
