Episode 27: The Birth of a Nation

This week we chat about the Nat Turner biopic, The Birth of a Nation. Freshman director Nate Parker's passion project tells the story to Nat Turner, a literate slave and preacher who initiates a deadly uprising in the American south. There is plenty to talk about and consider in this movie, which is becoming quite divisive - inspiring both audience protests and garnering quite a bit of Oscar buzz.   What We’ve Been Up To - 0:00:56 Aaron (The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Finding Freedom: A Westworld Podcast) Patrick (Pitch) The Birth of a Nation Review - 0:12:02 The Connecting Point - 0:52:31   Join the Facebook Discussion Group:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/1162223530455455/   Intro/Outro Music - "Air Hockey Saloon" by Chris Zabriskie   Follow the show: Twitter - @FeelinFilm Aaron - @AaronElWhite Patrick - @shoelesspatch   You can always e-mail us at feelinfilm(AT)gmail(DOT)com. Also, like us on Facebook!  Rate/Review us on iTunes and on your podcast app of choice!
