Review of White Material (2010) by Alex B — 06 Aug 2011
It's a good film (about denial as much as anything else), a good account of its subject-matter, not at all heavy-handed (perhaps even rather too subtle/mysterious). But I don't really feel sorry for anyone trying to run a business (i.
E. exploiting labor), not even (or especially not, depending on the circumstances) during a civil war or revolution, and certainly not a white European kulak in Africa (even a strong woman). Compare with Brecht's play Mother Courage, or Apocalypse Now.
