The Birth of a Nation [DVD] [2016]

Whenever I see a movie that's supposed to be a true story, I look for all the details. The movie left out that his wife and child were sold to another plantation and that plantation was exempt from his killing spree of the slave owners. Plus they showed people all outraged about his uprising, but never told the reason why. If it were men fighting men, it would be a fair fight, but the reality was that he killed 50 white people including 10 children under 16 plus infants in the cribs. His religious bible study led him to believe that he was directed by God to kill all ALL men, women and children, as they did in Canaan.. Plus his original slave owner had died and he was inherited by another member, who was mean. Original owner was treating him well. other than that, it was a good film about slave mistreatment

This is a great film that looks into the life of Nat Turner. It sheds light on his upbringing and background (parents and wife). It also shows the horrible conditions that slaves during that time endured. Overall great film!!!!!

4K HDR is spectacular. A good window into history.

LOVE this movie it is uplifting and a great prospective of things

This is a great movie to watch for any history buff. A totally different take on Nate Turner's role in the start of Civil War.

The story of Nat Turner is shown in a different light. Along with the extra documentary included with the film.

A very good perspective on a untold historical event. I was enlightened and had a broader view on how injustice can spiral into violence of infamous proportion even among deep convictions to love thy neighbor. A RUDE AWAKENING

This movie is about a dark time in our history, enough said! Beyond that it was a very good film and I plan on watching it again.
