AMIGO
August 8th, 2011
AMIGO- 2010. Synopsis by Netflix. “Writer-director John Sayles steers this poignant period drama, set in turn-of-the-century Philippines, that examines the U.S. occupation of the islands from the perspective of American soldiers, who settle in with native residents. Making connections between the past and modern-day dealings in Iraq and Afghanistan, Sayles draws some surprising parallels through repeated history. Chris Cooper stars as Col. Hardacre.” Worse than average early audience reviews. TRDB.
8/19/11- Good review in today’s NY Times. TRDB.
