Movie Review by B Movie Ben
February 18th, 2007

War is Hell

I gave up some sleep time last night to catch an old film that looked really interesting - Harrison's Flowers with Andie Macdowell (Four Weddings and a Funeral) and David Strathairn (Good Night, and Good Luck.). It was a very romantic, if incredibly unrealistic, film about a woman who travels to Bosnia in the middle of the war to find her husband, whom she refuses to believe is dead. It was the graphic and tense depiction of the war and the ethnic cleansing that went on during that war that was so captivating. I have not seen such realistic war footage since Saving Private Ryan. Fortunately, they left out the blood and gore, but they could not leave out the terrible toll that this war and all wars take.
