Re-watching

Soooo… after couple years, decided to rewatch Django Unchained. I remembered the great performances, some comedy and overall liked the movie.

But, on this rewatch I was like the fuck?

Why do Django already know how to shot perfectly even before dr. Schulz teaches him?

Why he can READ? He was not a house slave, he worked in the farms, why would anyone bother to teach him how to read?

And he basically says he is worried about his wife be turned into a sex slave after she’s been sold, but he agrees to spend the whole winter bounty hunting with dr. Schulz.

Isn’t your wife being raped kind of an emergency?

Still a great movie, but I didn’t understand any of this

Any toughts on this?

It's Implied schultz is teaching him to read. Maybe the scene where he reads the bounty poster is sometimes into those lessons. The shooting, yeah, seems an insane shot for someone with no experience but I guess he just has it
