I just wanted to point out that we, as a forum, in a completely non-scientific poll, voted this The Best Movie Ever . . .

. . . which I am very happy about, because I think this title deserves it. Excelsior!

I have been trying to catch this movie on for so long i really do want to see it but i can't seem to catch it on grr ... maybe i'll jus end up buying the movie on dvd or something because all you say its so great..and i trust you. well most of you at least.

Schlinder's List is one of those films where you can watch once in a blue moon. Personally, i haven't seen it either. How does anyone rate it with Hotel Rwanda? Does "Rwanda" even come close?

I havn't seen it, but those who have(sister and pappy) say it was fantastic. Cheadle was just excellent. I'm sure I would agree with them.

Yes I've seen Hotel Rwanda..and it was incredible Cheadle..is phenomenal ( i don't think i spelt that right). Yes I think it was a great film and definitely needed to be made because I don't think alot of people knew about it. I'm not sure how to compare to Schlinder's List as I haven't seen it .

They're both very powerful stories . . . but cinematically Hotel Rwanda is not in the same league.

There is a song played on the record player in the scene where the Jews are forced to run round the camp nude, then another straight afterwards when the children are getting into the trucks and a few find hiding places. The first is sung by a man with a very deep voice, and the second is sung by a woman and the children are also singing along. Does anyone know anything about these two songs, like what they're called? They're not in the sound track.
