Title: Great Flick, But...
Review: SOMETIMES IN APRIL was even better. If you really want to get a feel for what happened outside of the hotel see this movie!! It takes you into the homes, neighborhoods, villages, churches, schools for Hutu's & Tutsi's alike and there are even a few scenes at the hotel from HOTEL RWANDA. It also extends past those 100+ days to the trials and village tribunals years later. SOMETIMES IN APRIL is a much more comprehensive look at the horror of that time. While I was moved by HOTEL RWANDA, I was moved to tears by SOMETIMES IN APRIL. Everyone should see both of these movies. Also, read the book, WE ARE HERE TO INFORM YOU THAT TOMORROW YOU WILL BE KILLED WITH YOUR FAMILIES, for folks interested in additional reading on the subject. I'd like to say that perhaps we all can learn something from these tragedies but what happened in Rwanda seems like further indication that we never learn from history, we just end up repeating it.
Is the review positive or negative?
