yeah it was good, but definitely not one you want to watch too much. I love movies that have some fact behind them.

The CDN red cross guy that is portrayed in that movie was really messed up after the whole thing happened. He went through lots of therapy, some of which was writing a book. I think its called "Shaking hands with the devil". He does lots of public speaking now. Just so you know...

It is a very eye opening movie though. It's still going on in other places too. One thing to notice, if you remember the part where you hear condolisa rice's voice on the radio, she completely avoids saying "genocide" because whenever a major country (ie. USA) admits to a genocide, the country has to go and try to stop it(something like that, I think it might have to do with countries involved with the UN). She avoided this because they tried to help in another genocide and had many innocent people killed. One of the names that politicans call genocide to make it sound better is "ethnic cleansing". It's pretty horrible...

That movie tore me up, it was really hard to watch.

It's up there with my favorites, right next to City of God.
