Amistad starts off being unintelligible while neither English nor subtitles are seen - though the action does speak a lot. Slaves on a ship escape and the battle to claim them starts. It is in the courts that they find a determined anti-slavery advocate and his battle against the establishment to get them freedom. The hypocracy in the civilised world as well as the elements of good are brought out well.
Amistad (1997) (7/10)
