## Description

Product Description It was advertised as “The first motion picture based on historical facts about the rise and revolt of slavery in America.” It became one of the most reviled and misunderstood films of its time. Written, edited, produced and directed by Gualtiero Jacopetti and Franco Prosperi, this epic recreation of the American slave trade atrocities was both condemned as depraved exploitation and acclaimed as an unprecedented cry of Black anguish and rage. The Detroit Chronicle hailed it as “a graphic, moving, nerve-paralyzing film.” Legendary film critic Pauline Kael called it “the most specific and rabid incitement of the race war.” Three decades cannot diminish GOODBYE UNCLE TOM's impact or quiet its controversy. This is the complete 123-minute English Version of GOODBYE UNCLE TOM, fully restored from the original vault negatives, loaded with incredible Extras and now presented totally uncut, uncensored, and virtually unseen since its abortive theatrical release more than 30 years ago. Review "An All-Time Great Gut-Busting Flick!" -- The Amsterdam News"INCREDIBLE... You Will Not Believe What You're Watching! It Makes ROOTS Look Like An Episode Of THE JEFFERSONS!" --Shock Cinema"The Most Shocking Of The Series... Banned In Several Countries For Obvious Reasons!" --DVD Talk"This Is It! The Most Offensive, Denigratory And All-In-All Unrelentingly Distasteful Film You Are Likely To Witness!" --Sex Gore Mutants

Review: AN IMPORTANT AND UGLY FILM - I noticed there is only one review for this amazing film. The above reviewer seems to have missed the point of this well-done and shocking film. Slavery was a horrible and nasty chapter in American History. Would it not make sense that the portrayal of slavery would be disgusting and evil? Franco Prosperi and Gualtiero Jacopetti of 'Mondo Cane' spared no expense in creating this epic film. Contrary to the previous reviewer, I think this incredible movie should be mandatory viewing for all high school seniors in this Country (especially in the South). After watching this, you will want to go out on your front lawn and burn a rebel flag. This movie is pretty nasty and shocking. The only other film I have seen that is anywhere near as ill is 'Salo'. I reccomend this movie to anyone living in the United States. It will really make you think.
Review: The film that will make you want to spit on the face of every Neo-Confedarate apologist. - First off, I just wanna say the transfer of the film is great. Blue Entertainment did a masterful job bringing this movie to 4K. This film is unrelenting and horrific. It's depiction of my Nation's (and my race's) immortal sin of slavery is an onslaught that doesn't let up. Slave breeding, slave ships and slave auctions are shown for all their brutality. The catharsis that comes at the end of the movie left me screaming in approval. A particular moment of note is when the documentary crew interview and Slave with glasses who appears to have been educated. He sits in a pen with other soon-to-be auctioned slaves and brings up justifications and apologetics for the institution that's has robbed him and his people of freedom. "Slaves are expensive and thus masters seek to take good care of them because scars and injuries reduce their resale value." Hearing that said in this movie from the 70s made my skin crawl. I've heard many Confederate apologists whip out these same talking points at protests concerning the tearing down of the racist monuments they erected to celebrate the men who fought to keep their race enslaved. This movie makes me want to spit in those people's faces.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A shocking, one of a kind film the likes of which we will never see again
*by P***K on February 26, 2010*

Enough has been written about the film and it's shocking content - sufficed to say that we will never ever see a film of this magnitude, honesty and in your face brutality ever again - certainly not in the PC age in which we live. The disc is a little misleading. I saw this 20 years ago on vhs and some sequences, ie the brothel with the nympho white woman seducing chained up slaves WAS present, though contrary to the illustrations on the front and back cover of this new "uncut" release these sequences are missing. They came right after the tour through the bordello with the dancing pre-pubescent black girls and the silver painted young boys (a sequence that's very uneasy for the viewer). I know there are different edits but I'm surprised this relatively innocuous 'nympho' sequence is omitted. However in defence of the dvd I have to highly praise the beautiful if not stunning transfer which is a sight to behold. I must also highly recommend the extras on the disc: a fascinating 50 mins of 8mm (or 16mm) home movie footage shot on location in Haiti which covers much of the filming - including some gruesome deleted scenes involving chopping off of hands and the prosthetics by Carlo Rambaldi. This 'doco' is narrated by the assistant director/location manager who actually shot the material. Also of note is a wonderful stills gallery again narrated by this same fellow who has many great anecdotes and reminisinces about the long difficult 2 year shoot and the near tyrannical director who is often seen screaming his lungs out at extras and crew.
