A must see!

Rating: 9/10 (8 January 2006)

This is a wonderful, serious movie that everyone should see. I especially recommend it for teenagers (who are at least 16 years of age because of the violent scenes). Being human means holding some prejudices inside. Being human also sometimes means doing the immoral. In this movie we see the terrible result of prejudice, immorality and inhumanity by humans to other human beings. It also shows the dark side of capitalism. Less than 200 years ago our ancestors and fellow countrymen behaved in these ways. Yet, even today such cruelty and even slavery continues in our world. This well-done movie and interesting story will hopefully prod viewers to question their own biases and prejudices. Don't miss it (many award nominations/several awards), and if you have children old enough to be ready to see it, view it with them.
