Amazing film! Superb Acting!

Rating: 10/10 (17 February 2002)

This was an amazing film. I would rank it in my top 10 favorite movies. Sam Waterston is such a wonderful actor, he makes every movie he's in better with his subtle performances. With this movie, it is Waterston's concern for his friend and guide/translator that makes the film. Haing Ngor's performance is as good as Waterston's, and together, they create a very moving story without sappy, over-the-top sentiment. Everyone should watch this movie.
