Storyline

In 1858, a bounty hunter named Schultz seeks out a slave named Django and buys him because he needs him to find some men he is looking for. After finding them, Django wants to find his wife, Brunhilde, who along with him were sold separately by his former owner for trying to escape. Schultz offers to help him if he chooses to stay with him and be his partner. Eventually they learn that she was sold to a plantation in Mississipi. Knowing they can't just go in and say they want her, they come up with a plan so that the owner will welcome them into his home and they can find a way. Written by rcs0411@yahoo.com

Trivia

Django takes on a mythical form while on Big Daddy's plantation confronting the Brittle Brothers. The Gothic nature of this scene is clearly represented when Big John Brittle is about to whip Little Jody for breaking eggs. Django is dressed in his "Blue Boy" attire, but when Little Jody looks at his image in the mirror next to the tree where she is tied, Django's head and hands are invisible in the reflection, elevating his mythic stature to that of an enchanted figure. In Gothic lore, specters and ghosts are unable to see their own reflections. See more »

Goofs

Before Django, Calvin, and Dr Schulze arrive at the plantation, Stephen fills out a check to The Harris Feed Co. for "Sixty Five Dollars", but the numbered amount is for $68.00. After Stephen stamps the check, the camera zooms on the check revealing a different check for the right number amount of $65.00. See more »

User Reviews

 
One of the best movies this year
26 December 2012 | by – See all my reviews

At first I didn't want to see this movie because of some political remarks made by Jamie Foxx and Samuel Jackson, two of my previously favorite actors, but Quintin Tarentino is a great director, so I broke down and saw it. Glad I did. This was absolutely one of the best movies of the year. Although Jamie Foxx has top billing, this film would not have been anywhere as good without Christoph Waltz. He stole every scene he was in. Brilliant acting and great comedic delivery. Leo was great too. Lots of blood, something expected in most of Quintins movies, but a great story. Also expect to hear the N word about 2000 times. Cristoph Waltz should get the Oscar for his performance. Should get nominated for best picture. This is absolutely a must see.
