Love me some Brad Pitt, find myself only checking out movies that he’s in ONLY because he’s in them. I don’t see that being the case with ’12 Years a Slave.’ A film that is based on a true story of a free man from the north who was abducted & sold into slavery in the south. Director Steve McQueen says,  “In the pre-Civil War United States, Solomon Northup, a free black man from upstate New York, is abducted and sold into slavery.” Producer Brad Pitt alongside Benedict Cumberbatch & Michael Fassbender, star in ’12 Years a Slave’ which hits the big screen October 18.
