Notes et avis

Wow !! a must see.... Eric Bana and Forrest Whitaker are excellent along with the cast.The despair pulls at the heart strings of a time where the inhumanity and lack of insight allowed this to happen. The Forgiven ....don't know if i could...

Tells the story from both sides as it was at that specific point in time, it showed hope for the future which alas didn't evole as is self evident, clearly there were people who were victims, who wanted peace on both side, these people lost it would appear. But it is a good movie well worth watching as the cast suggests.

What a ripper. You have got to love Eric Bana! Powerful story based on real events. I really enjoyed this film.
