Title: typical french scumbag
Review: Documentary about a radical French/Vietnamese lawyer who might have spent years in Cambodia during its genocide---the middle of this movie is spent wondering, excusing, hinting where the lawyer disappeared during the 70s, and since nobody comes up with an answer, it's possible he was leading a good life in Cambodia while the average Cambodian was being slaughted by French-speaking, left-wing, Cambodians.Lots of talking heads in this movie, though some good archive footage.Worthwhile for one viewing, though too boring for repeated viewings.Cannes film festival is a joke; the French loved Nazi Leni Refinstahl, Roman Polanksi, and Michael Moore.
