This week we're reviewing Beyond the Gates(aka Shooting Dogs), the 2005 movie from director Michael Canton-Jones(Memphis Belle, Rob Roy, Doc Hollywood, Basic Instinct 2(WTF?) and starring John Hurt(The Elephant Man, I, Claudius, V for Vendetta) and Hugh Dancy(The Jane Austen Book Club).
It tells the story of a veteran Catholic priest and an inexperienced
young teacher who find themselves caught up in the Rwandan genocide of
1994. You might already know the basics of the story if you saw Hotel Rwanda,
but you might not(as my co-host didn't). This film also takes some
interesting turns exploring the role of religion and the presence(or
lack thereof) of God.
