Spoilers ! The best film of all time

Rating: 10/10 (8 December 2009)

When I saw the Killing Fields back in 1984 I had read some of the reviews. Many reviews were rating this film as a love story. I went to see it just to find out what they were talking about. The first twenty minutes was a bit long but then it begun to warm up. The Cambodian situation was dreadful and certainly not a part of history anyone can be proud about. The Americans did nothing to help the people of Cambodia and it seem to be a repeat of Vitnam all over again. As you get into the film, you begin to sense that both Pran and Sydney were in a very dangerous situation. The French Embassy scene was the most heart rendering moment of the film. The reviews were right. It was a love story. I rate this film as one of the best films of all time. There was nothing "Hollywood" on it's label. It was gritty,dramatic, and very sad yet it was a true story which does have a happy ending.
