r/movies on Reddit: Can someone explain if Samuel L. Jackson's character in Django Unchained has some special meaning?
August 14, 2017 -
So I rewatched Django Unchained tonight, and for those who don't know or remember, Samuel L. Jackson plays a house slave who is extremely loyal to Calvin Candie, a slaver, and this slave supports and participates in his master's racism and belief in the inferiority of blacks. Does this character have any special meaning beyond as a tool of the story? Is it an exaggerated representation of the idea of the house slave who accepted and sometimes participated in the system? If not, what, if anything, does this character represent?
Top answer 1 of 5
46
He is someone that benefited from a system that oppressed his entire race, he is set up to be almost as bad as Candy was
2 of 5

Notice something about Candy. He speaks of all the inferiority of blacks. In the end you will note that Stephen is the one pulling the strings in the end. He's not the dragon, Candy is. Notice how much control he exudes after. He plays dumb with Candy but with Django he shows how much smarter he is. He's so much smarter and profits off the slavery system. The special meaning is Stephen is more then what he appears and further adds to the bullshit Calvin Candie and his family believes in.
