血鑽石

we went to go see "blood diamond" last night. i really didn't think it was my kind of movie, but oh my goodness, it blew me away. it's so good! tragic, brutal, heart-breaking, but excellent. definitely oscar-worthy. djimon hounsou's performance was heart-breakingly stellar, i just love him. and leo and jen weren't bad either. i walked away feeling (as i'm guessing most of you did): 1) i don't think about or pray enough for africa; 2) i am so blessed to live where i do; and 3) who cares about having a diamond engagement ring?

  3. yes, i second that! no blood diamonds for me.

    have you seen Hotel Rwanda? i actually thought it was a bit better than Blood Diamond, but i learned a lot from both... and yes, djimon hounsou's was really good... we'll see what they get at Oscar time!
