So I loved this film, but it was especially wonderful because of Benedict's role, even if it was a minor one. His southern accent was pretty spot on, though some of his vowels had a slight British construct to them, and he was just so much fun to watch. 

It's a splendid movie without Benedict, so you all should see it. A very heartbreakingly real rendition of slave life in the United States' South. I am from Georgia myself, though my family was too poor to be anything but Irish maids and manservants, but it had me appalled that anyone could treat another human like that.
