Stuff Day - October Movies

I'm going to start something new here.  Thursday is going to be Stuff day.  Sometimes I'll review a movie.  Sometimes it'll be a book, or maybe a cool tool.  Sometimes I'll just tell you about something neat I've heard of but haven't had a chance to play with yet.  It's the stuff I'm excited about right now!

The Movie I'm Anticipating for October:

12 Years a Slave

The story of a free black man in antebellum New York who is kidnapped and sold into slavery.  This movie looks like pure Oscar bait with an amazing cast (Chiwetel Ejiofor, Benedict Cumberbatch, Michael Fassbender, and Brad Pitt).  I bet the costumes are going to be great, too.  They're by Patricia Norris (Victor Victoria, Sunset, 2010) who has had an amazing career.  Comes out on the 17th.
