We watched the first to episodes of "Underground Railroad" last night. I read the book a few years ago and really enjoyed it. The movie - not so much so far.
The first episode is mostly very graphic scenes of white men torturing slaves. We get it, they were treated badly, but this is was simply gratuitous. It was as if the director really enjoyed watching slaves being tortured and wanted to share his fascination with us.
MrsWD had to get up and leave the room and I fast forwarded through a lot of it.
I don't recommend it.
