The best Fassbender performance? - Hunger and Shame. You are really good, man. Hunger, Shame and 12 Years a Slave. Those movies survived on acting.

A powerful story and film that pulls no punches. Nor should it. Will make some of us feel even more self-righteous, others angry, others victimized. An award-winner for sure.

I personally don’t want to see any more slave films. I think it’s a time that’s been very well documented. ‘12 Years a Slave,’ although a genius movie, I just found it really hard to watch and didn’t want to go back down that road for the sake of entertainment. I think there are a lot more interesting stories that are less covered that we can spend our time on.

But this one we just did, 12 Years a Slave, is a very particular story about American slavery, which is a subject that some people think we’ve dealt with and done and put away, but then you see this story and you realize that we really haven’t. It’s based on the memoir of a free black man who lived in the North and who was tricked into slavery in the South. It’s just a horror story in a lot of ways. I think it’s gonna be interesting.

Which still isn't as many times as his most-viewed movie: Menace II Society. "I know it sounds kind of cliché," he said, later adding with a laugh when raving about Steve McQueen's 12 Years a Slave: "It's not only that I like black movies about black people."
