I thought it was poorly done....way over the top melodrama. I'm sure there was all kinds of horrendous violence toward slaves at the time, but shooting a slave in the field in front of other slaves was just not realistic. The personal storyline was too much soap opera. I'd much prefer a Ken Burns documentary on the subject.

tuned out to be a pretty good movie but I had rather it forced more on the father (title character) and son relationship than goings on at the whitehouse, just my take

have no desire to see it.

Anyone been to see the movie The Butler?
