Movies: Blood Diamond
This movie really works as all of an excellent and entertaining movie, a political statement, and a presentation of the horrors of a civil war I knew little of. Scenes of young boys driving into a peaceful village and just wildly shooting everyone in sight were shockingly powerful. The acting by all three leads is absolutely first-rate, although I found Jennifer Connelly somehow just too movie-star gorgeous for her role. Recommended. ****
