Quentin Tarantino has perfected his craft of making an exploitation film in his most recent venture, Django Unchained.
Tarantino continues the tirade against the racists and bigots he started in his Nazi exploitation piece Inglourious Basterds, this time aiming at slave traders in the Deep South of the USA.
Django (Jamie Foxx) is a slave in the mid 1800s, being transported across the country for sale. About half way through their journey, the convoy is stopped by a traveler who offers to buy Django. Vexed by the traveler's fancy words and offended by the way he speaks politely to the slaves, the slavers try to get rid of the traveler by force. This ends badly when the traveler kills one slaver and severely maims the other.
Turns out, the traveler is one Dr King Schultz (Christopher Waltz), a bounty hunter who wants to use Django to identify a trio of outlaws. During their travels, Django quickly adapts to the hunter's life and a friendship begins to blossom between the two men, with the former slave telling Schultz he wants to find his wife.
