even though this film trailer and poster imply that sally hemmings be an important character and i might not have be a shock to discover she be just a minor ( and i do mean minor ) character if this movie be suppose to be tell by sally very own family . i mean if you be go to tell the story of a member of your family that have be ignore by history and would you really tell it with the man who relegate her to obscurity at the main character . his other lover ( who happen to be white ) a the actual love interest . i know i wouldn not . i be as pale a they come and normally a big fan of merchent~ivory flick and but i couldn not stomach this film treatment of poor sally hemmings .
