Review of The Constant Gardener (2005) by Jons. — 09 Jul 2006
Pay no attention to those whose beef is with the film's politics. This is a masterpiece of filmmaking: personal, abstract, technicially marvelous, with an amazing story and as much suspense as one could ask for.
Yes, the movie is hugely critical of some pharmaceutical company practices, but it never asserts this is what all companies do. Most impressively, the movie ties together a man's journey to know his wife into a journey to understand the world.
Truly beautiful. Those that dislike the humane, intelligent, passionate politics of this film . . . well, they're part of the problem.
