Great story, great acting, superb director, unbeatable (for once)historic accuracy! this is the way movies handling conflict zones should be made! My highest regards and compliments to the director, the producers, the cast and the staff!!             The Devil Came On Horseback15 reviews Brian Steidle International Film Circuit / Break Thru Films, 2007 The Devil Came on Horseback This is a must see documentary for anyone concerned with what is really happening in Darfur. I found it very moving and accurate without resorting to over the top visualizations. *This a a very graphic depiction of the Genocide happening in Darfur but the film does not focus only on gruesome visuals. The story is very well told and seems to be a true depiction of the daily life and continuous ...             Conspiracy105 reviews Clare Bullus, Kenneth Branagh Hbo Home Video, 2002 Very fine docudrama 'Conspiracy' is a rare thing, a TV movie that only gets better every time you watch it. Not that you want to watch it very often, as it's essentially a dramatisation of how the Third Reich came to make its decisions about how the extermination of European Jewry should be planned and carried out. The Nazis called a conference in a villa in the Berlin suburb of Wannsee; after it was over, all ...             Darfur Now Nimeri Issa, Jason Miller (XXV) Warner Home Video, 2008 Making a difference. Now. This acclaimed inspiring documentary follows six people who are striving to end the suffering in Sudan?s war-ravaged Darfur. The six ? an American activist an international prosecutor a Sudanese rebel a sheikh a leader of the World Food Program and Don Cheadle who traverses the globe with fellow actor George Clooney to pressure world leaders ? demonstrate the power of one individual to make extraordinary changes. Be an ...             Hotel Rwanda272 reviews Xolani Mali, Don Cheadle MGM (Video & DVD), 2005 dvd I gave this as a gift. They were very pleased as they had been to Africa that year and said it depicted some of the areas they travelled.             Schindler's List (Widescreen Edition)599 reviews Liam Neeson, Ben Kingsley Universal Studios, 2004 THE GREATEST MOVIE EVER MADE If i had the time i would elaborate more, but put simply this is the greatest movie ever made...EVER MADE. I have seen citizen kane, raging bull, psycho, every one of Kubrick's films, 7 samurai among many of Kurosawa's films, to make to a long story short from someone who has seen a great number of movies, there has never been a movie that has moved me like Schindler's List. It is a cinematic ...             Endgame: Blueprint for Global Enslavement137 reviews Disinformation, 2007 OUTSTANDING DVD!!!! As I prepared to sit down and watch this DVD I was sure that I would find this worth a good laugh and chuckle....I was wrong! This opened my eyes to many "truths" around me that had gone unreported (censored). During my second viewing of the DVD I had pen and paper and jotted down stated "facts" to research and possibly discredit. Just the opposite occurred, it validated the facts that ...             One Night With the King223 reviews Tiffany Dupont, Luke Goss 20th Century Fox, 2007 one night with the king, the story of Queen Esther Wonderful family movie. If you are familiar with the story of Esther, then you will enjoy this movie about God's providence in preserving His People. The props, location and clothes are beautiful. The actors did an excellent job!!! I would highly recommend this movie!             The Killing Fields92 reviews Sam Waterston, Haing S. Ngor Warner Home Video, 2001 Chilling At the time of release this was a shocker. Not many realised what genocide was. How this could go on without intervention by the wider world was disturbing. With the passage of time, and similar atrocities almost every day, it seems we have become sensitised. Worth viewing to remind us to be alert.             The Pianist303 reviews Adrien Brody, Frank Finlay Universal Studios, 2003 Gut wrenching... The film is based on a true story and is set in World War II. It centers around a world class pianist by the name of Wladyslaw Szpilman who survives the Holocaust with the help of Polish revolutionaries attempting to overthrow the Nazi occupation and with the courageous help from non-Jewish sympathizers. You may have seen a number of movies on the Holocaust and ask yourself why torment yourself ...             Behind Enemy Lines205 reviews Owen Wilson, Gene Hackman 20th Century Fox, 2002 they don't make them any better High octane action/war flick. Makes you proud of the Red, White & Blue and what it represents. And it's also fun seeing the bad guys get their comeupponce. Surprised to discover this was the director John Moore's maiden effort, because he handles the action sequences like a pro. And Gene Hackman? What can you say about Mr. Hackman that hasn't been said before? Excellent. As always. This ...             Amen21 reviews Ulrich Tukur, Mathieu Kassovitz Kino International, 2003 The price of dissidence This is the story of SS Officer Kurt Gerstein, the "good Nazi" who was good at his job and believed in his work until he realized what it was. This is my first experience with the concept of the "good Nazi," especially one that operates in the ranks of the SS - but the story claims to be true. While the Gerstein character is real, the Catholic Priest who tries to help him is a fictional ...             Frontline: Ghosts of Rwanda22 reviews PBS Paramount, 2005 PBS special: one of the best I teach a genocide and hate awareness class. As a teacher, this documentary outstrips other videos concerning the atrocities in Rwanda. So many of our kids have seen Hotel Rwanda. Not that it is bad, but it was edited by the director to not be as graphic as it could have been, and many of the key characters were changed, such as Gen. Dallaire into Nick Nolte's character. The Ghosts of ...             Night and Fog - Criterion Collection56 reviews Michel Bouquet, Reinhard Heydrich Criterion, 2003 A caveat . . . I've noted that a number of reviewers mention seeing Night and Fog in a high school class. I think one would have to be very careful about using this film in high school. This is not simply because it is very graphic. If it is the ONLY film about the Holocaust that students see, particularly in the context of a survey course in European history, where there's very little time for an in-depth look ...             The Diary of Immaculee12 reviews New Jersey Studios, 2006 Lived to Tell, Documentary of Emmaculee Ilibagiza An incredible story of faith and survival. A must read for everyone. We keep saying never again to genocide and still these things happen. We must say the same to war, especially Bush's war of invasion on Iraq.             The Prophecy 3: The Ascent34 reviews Christopher Walken, Vincent Spano Dimension, 2000 Great Great movie shipped in excellent condition. If you've seen the first two a definite must see!             Sometimes in April50 reviews Idris Elba, Carole Karemera HBO Home Video, 2005 Graphic yet gripping I had purchased this review after hearing a Relevant magazine podcast where the magazine editor had traveled to Rwanda. In the interview the editor, Cameron Strang had commented on how the local people in Rwanda had said that if they had to pick a movie that told their story, they would choose 'Sometimes in April'. Hotel Rwanda was good, but it did not accurately capture the character that Don ...             Senator Obama Goes To Africa5 reviews Barack Obama FIRST RUN FEATURES, 2007 This Video Reaffirms Barack's Commitment To The African Continent. This video demonstrates that if Obama is president, we can expect to have a single-minded focus on peacekeeping the African Continent. Barack's commitment to Africa is intense and heartfelt. Between his separatist Afro-centric church and his choice of Rev. Wright as his spiritual mentor, coupled with Civil Rights being the #1 listed item on his "plan for change", one can rest assured that ...             Behind Enemy Lines [Blu-ray]205 reviews Owen Wilson, Gene Hackman Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment, 2006 they don't make them any better High octane action/war flick.
