Abstract
The latest movie in the saga that is the demented genius of Quentin Tarentino, Django Unchained is an amazing movie. Though racked and steaming in controversy and an overabundance of the N-word, the story and the acting pulled it through. The trio of Jamie Foxx, Kerry Washington ad Quentin Tarentino sang in such good harmony as they made it through the script, the Academy awarded it an award for the script. God move and great times.
