As much as I despise racism, when I watched
Addio Zio Tom/Goodbye Uncle Tom, I thought that if you're going to make a dramatic documentary about the slave trade, then this is the way to do it. Yes it's repugnant, but that's the whole point, slavery
was repugnant. If you find the subject matter repellant, then I'd say that's a good thing and is the point of the film. But I do agree that it's jaw-droppingly sensationalist and at times couldn't believe what I was seeing! It probably is indefensible, but I'm defending it anyway.
