Last night i watched 'Reign over me'. I was looking for cinema on 9/11 and i picked this film(the other being 'Taxi to the dark side', which i am yet to watch). Other than the subject, the one thing which got me interested was Adam Sandler. I wanted to see how he would perform in a non-comic role. What a disappointment! Sheer disgrace. Both the acting and treatment. After slaughtering millions around the world, is it appropriate to portray the white man as the victim? It is blatant propaganda like this that is alienating more and more Americans around the world.Dinesh Bhadwalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01062945179439056848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6072420181476584961.post-27950882949960189232011-09-13T11:05:04.533-04:002011-09-13T11:05:04.533-04:00By chance, my husband and I were in New York on th...By chance, my husband and I were in New York on the 10th anniversary of 9/11. It was painful to be near where the twin towers used to stand. And so so sad to watch those who lost loved ones at the memorial. Clearly, they haven't forgotten. But, the U.S. has. Because if remembered all those lives lost in the U.S., Iraq & Afghanistam, we couldn't go on killing each other.rebrivvedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04504757685273774659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6072420181476584961.post-75128163245937328182011-09-13T02:00:30.862-04:002011-09-13T02:00:30.862-04:00Thank you for speaking up about this, George.
