Movie pick

Went to see The Interpreter and was surprised to see how much it's about Africa. The context is a combination of Congo/Zaire, Zimbabwe and half a dozen other liberation-turned-tyrannical governments. Really well-acted and interesting story. But more than that, it embodies the angst of those of us who love the continent and can't come up with a simple way to help.
