Excellent film

Rating: 10/10 (5 May 2008)

One of the best films I have seen. Great cast, great acting and excellent portrayal of the main character. Its been a while since I saw it so I don't remember all details. But I did watch a documentary on the Paul and I wonder why no Oscars for that excellent portrayal by Don, down to the accent. Would recommend it to all who are tired of the run of the mill movies out there. The tale is of courage,of cunning, of survival and is true. How Paul tries to "save up" on favors for a rainy day, how conditions make him form a man out to survive into a hero of his own scale to save others. How he deals with having to juggle his position between the factions that he belongs to and that of his wife. In bits and pieces, it is all there. And the end is amazing. A worthy film that portrays what sick things can happen and how easily we all turn a blind eye. Well this film reminds and tells us we were there and we were blind as it happened. Kudos to the cast and crew. Effort was complete, not just a quick documentary or total Hollywood whitewash of the topic. Characters are built and influences and incidents are interwoven well. 10/10 any day.
