Django Unchained (2012)

Seen on 28-03-2013 @ GVK
       Went all the 16+ miles plodding through the afternoon traffic and trying to figure out my way to the destination and worrying being late bec I once entered the wrong way and had to go a long  long way to retrace back to the right way.  But all this could have been worthwhile, but it ended up being an expensive misadventure for me.
        Vinay and I had agreed that this was a potboiler set in  antebellum  South, with a very gifted cast: Christoph Waltz (who went on to get an Oscar for supporting role), Jamie Foxx and DiCaprio.  I felt that while Waltz (whom I remember fr Inglorious Basterds) deserved his Oscar, I doubted if the same could have been said of Quentin Tarantino who won it for original script (it could be my fault that I failed to appreciate the merits of the script: the good points of the script were probably missed bec most of the time the accent made it strenuous and difficult to follow the conversation)
