The Good Lord Bird (Showtime Mini-Series About John Brown)

[masagipatron]

I've been waiting for Hollywood to do a legit John Brown film for years. This is a mini series, but I'll take it. Starring Ethan Hawke as well as Daveed Diggs (Hamilton, Blindspotting, Clipping). It premieres on Sunday, August 9th.

Need more triumphant slavery era flicks like this even if they aint historically accurate.

Django Unchained was not enough or vengeful enough for me. Ever since I learned about John Brown and Nat Turner wanted to see some movies depicting some slave revolts and slave master killings.

Will watch this for Diggs and Hawke. One thing I didn't care for about the book this is based on is Brown was rolling with a boy in a dress as he went around killing racists but I see in most adaption they just make it a girl.

Cast is spread deep with new, old, and current talent. I hope it’s good.
