Hotel Rwanda..
In a world where basic comforts of life have been taken for granted, this movie comes as a brutal realization of how people have battled and died in nations consumed in political and ethnic strife. The conflict between the Hutu and the Tutsis tribes that led to the 800,000 killings of the Tutsis by the ruling Hutu government in Rwanda is a devastating example of that. Rather intense for a friday evening viewing but surely a good one.

Saw this movie just last eve, and while not my first choice for a relaxed Friday, I cannot get it out of my mind now. The grim and chilling portrayal of true life events, while the western world turned a blind eye, and the superb acting by Cheadle who IMO was totally robbed of the coveted gold statuette made this a very unforgettable and moving experience.
