Sometimes just being alive is enough

In fact, I can't bear to watch films of this type, like "Schindler's List", and watch the real blood flow in another world.
And is it actually another world? No, they live in a world with us, just too far away. We only read the
numbers .

In fact, they are all living people. They all lived well in the past. What is the resentment, who gave those people the power, and what did they do wrong
, so that millions of people can leave this world like this.

In a turbulent world, everyone seems so small and vulnerable.
In a turbulent world, ordinary people can also magnify and magnify those ugly things. Unlimited indulgence, inhumane killing, and even endless destruction.
I thought that all of this would be firmly nailed to the pillar of human shame~
I used to have a hippie smile and fell into endless sadness from the beginning of the film. People walked around and came to ask questions, but I couldn't get out of the film, I couldn't hold back my tears,

alas, sometimes just being alive is enough.

    We watched the scenes of the slaughter and continued to eat

    It always feels light and false to shoot the subject of genocide in the genre of drama. Losing points is still in the single line, a Western resort hotel manager's one-man show, no matter how it is rendered, it also appears thin. In the end, the burden of reunion was hanged for more than half of the time, and finally untied, it was too stereotyped. The most valuable thing is to learn about the background of the slaughter and Hutu Tutsi’s colonial origins.

Hotel Rwanda quotes

  • Paul Rusesabagina: I am glad that you have shot this footage and that the world will see it. It is the only way we have a chance that people might intervene.

    Jack: Yeah and if no one intervenes, is it still a good thing to show?

    Paul Rusesabagina: How can they not intervene when they witness such atrocities?

    Jack: I think if people see this footage they'll say, "oh my God that's horrible," and then go on eating their dinners.

    [pause]

    Jack: What the hell do I know?

  • Colonel Oliver: [explaining why the world will not intervene] You're black. You're not even a nigger. You're an African.
