I loved this film. I loved the story line, the acting etc. Every character was so believable, and the story line made such sense to me, that I actually thought this was a documentary film.
Every Palestinian and Israeli should watch this film.
Sometimes, good is a byproduct of not terribly altruistic intent. It's the story of an Israeli guy who sees an opportunity for making some money on a need that the Palestinian's have and knowing that he can't work with them, finds intermediaries. He contacts a Palestinian who does not want to work with an Israeli but sees a need of his people.
Both are met with incredible opposition from friends, family and business associates and a strange but tenuous relationship begins to develop
I think this film should be shown in classrooms around the world.

This is a brilliant documentary of the fascinating life of Roger Ebert. There is so much more to him that you would ever know from the show that made him well known as a movie critic.
There is an amazing piece that he wrote about the 5 little black girls killed in church when he was only 21 that will stick with me.
Rober Ebert was the sort of man that you wouldn't really like, in many ways he was so enormously narcissistic and self-serving that he wouldn't make a good friend but he was so interesting, brilliant and quick that he would be someone that you'd want to hang out with.
Since he was part of the film making process, I'm sure that his sharp edges were filed down, but in the end, his disease turned him into someone much different, and nearly everyone cried when he died.
Every single person coming out of the movie theater liked this film. For movie buffs, it has it all. Lots of movie information, the fascinating relationship of Siskel and Ebert, and a incomparable love story, but be prepared for seeing the horror how how he had to be carved up to survive.
It is a great tribute to his love of movies, that the movie about his life should be so well made. A fascinating film.
