I’ll be honest. The trailer for Nate Parker’s vehicle “The Birth of a Nation” feels too much like Mel Gibson’s vehicle “Braveheart”, which is considered one of the most cringe-inducing films to win an Oscar for Best Picture.

I mean, yes, both films have received almost the same generally-positive Rotten Tomatoes (78%), but Braveheart is mocked to this day for that one-liner from William Wallace.
