Yes, the subject is as topical & relevant in today's contexts as can be. The core might be on the Israel-Palestine conflict, but can be extended to nearly major country - US-Iran/Afghanistan, India-Pakistan/Maoist rebels, West-Islamic world, Russia-Chechnya, so on and so forth. A picture of the violent times we're living in.Shubhajithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040495040897333606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2017832040275963428.post-45062822695970043882010-04-23T01:18:58.834+05:302010-04-23T01:18:58.834+05:30This is often a breathlessly-paced film that is dr...This is often a breathlessly-paced film that is drenched in paranoia, that manifests itself in murderous eye-contact (the 'seething anger' you speak about in your stupendous extended capsule review here),<br />and within the Palistinian ranks there's a pervasive suspicion of betrayal at every turn. And yes, no jingoisms whatsover here. Made in 2005, this film of course is as topical as any today, and will be for quite some time into the future.Sam Julianonoreply@blogger.com
