Django Unchained

CONTEST: See DJANGO UNCHAINED in TORONTO

Django Unchained

Welcome back to Dork Shelf, where the D isn’t silent, but we want to send some of our Toronto readers to see someone who takes pride in his silent first initial. Dork Shelf and Alliance Films want to send five lucky winners a pair of passes to an extra special advance screening of Quentin Tarantino’s long awaited DJANGO UNCHAINED with the Pulp Fiction and Inglourious Basterds director in attendance this coming Monday, December 10th at 7:00pm.

Set in the South two years before the Civil War, DJANGO UNCHAINED stars Academy Award®-winner Jamie Foxx as Django, a slave whose brutal history with his former owners lands him face-to-face with German-born bounty hunter Dr. King Schultz (Academy Award®-winner Christoph Waltz). Schultz is on the trail of the murderous Brittle brothers, and only Django can lead him to his bounty. The unorthodox Schultz acquires Django with a promise to free him upon the capture of the Brittles – dead or alive. Success leads Schultz to free Django, though the two men choose not to go their separate ways. Instead, Schultz seeks out the South’s most wanted criminals with Django by his side. Honing vital hunting skills, Django remains focused on one goal: finding and rescuing Broomhilda (Kerry Washington), the wife he lost to the slave trade long ago. Django and Schultz’s search ultimately leads them to Calvin Candie (Academy Award®-nominee Leonardo DiCaprio), the proprietor of “Candyland,” an infamous plantation where slaves are groomed to battle each other for sport. Exploring the compound under false pretenses, Django and Schultz arouse the suspicion of Stephen (Academy Award®-nominee Samuel L. Jackson), Candie’s trusted house slave. Their moves are marked, and a treacherous organization closes in on them. If Django and Schultz are to escape with Broomhilda, they must choose between independence and solidarity, between sacrifice and survival…

Django Unchained opens in theatres everywhere on Christmas Day, but we want to see some of you go to this once in a lifetime screening with director Quentin Tarantino in attendance. To enter, simply email [email protected] with DJANGO in the subject line. Please only one entry per household. For additional chances to win, simply like the contest announcement on our Facebook page and/or re-Tweet the announcement from our Twitter. Deadline for entries is 5pm on Sunday, December 9th, so hurry!

And as always stay tuned to Dork Shelf throughout the month of December for more great news, reviews, interviews, contests, and a full wrap up of the year in film.
