Road To Guantanamo Docudrama Film

[InfoMinister]

Has anyone seen this movie? I'm interested in it after hearing about it on Ebert & Roeper.

1. I've seen two of Winterbottom's other films

One was set in Bosnia and very critical of the Western role there, made in similar fashion to this film.

The other was a tale of Afghan refugees post-9/11.

Both were amazing and highly human with politics in the background.

I have a feeling this film will be even better than those. Just see it!

3. Only One I've Seen Is 24 Hour Party People

Thought that was pretty good.

Lots of disturbing comments there:
"Guantanamo; GIVE ME A FRIGGEN BREAK...PLLLLLEASE!
What do you think the enemy does with their prisoners?"

" Finally, these dumFs are alive, not dismembered, not crippled, not dead...emotionally they're probably tainted but look at items 1 and 2 and I remind you that I think they should be candidates for the Darwin awards. The strong survive, overcome, evolve, or addapt. The American's did them a favor by strengthening their bloodline and enlightening them to the true ways of the world."

4. RW filth

not even seeing the movie and saying nasty things because of its political nature -- although I bet that it is more human than political, as winterbottom's other films have been.
