Review of Invictus (2009) by Helena K — 08 May 2012
Made the year Obama took office, one simply cannot watch the film without thinking of the parallels of a polarizing black leader whose diplomacy was his hope for reaching across irreconcilable aisles. It's still it's own story, regardless, but an uncharacteristically optimistic one for Eastwood.
Matt Damon and Morgan Freeman inhabit their real-life characters with admirable conviction, and the pay-off is inspiring and uplifting without being cloying or affected.
