A Revision

Most movie goers tend to like to be entertained, watch a film with a cold beer (or pop) and a big tub of popcorn - and then forget it the next day. I don't blame them - after a long day at work, one wants to relax and only use 30% of one's brain.

These days, rarely one gets to see a film of the caliber of "Guess who's coming to dinner" or "Inherit the wind" - where one is encourage to ask questions and seek answers; to question one's values and judgments.

I would argue we need such films; the society needs us to watch such films.

Some French -Canadian films have a habit of asking and discussing tough (and important) questions. This is one of them. What do we teach our students? What is intolerance? How far do we go in following our principles and how sure are we that these principles are right? How much discretionary power do we leave to our academic mentors?

Don't look for "good guys" and "bad guys" in this film. There are only good questions and possible answers.

In my humble opinion, every intelligent person must see this film - as a civic duty.
