  Excellent movie, particularly if you lived through that period and can relate to what happened. Oscar for male actor would not surprise. My only negative comment is that it was just a bit too long...draggy at times. Would recommend to everyone.

  Thought it was a great movie with some really good performances. Surprised by some of the negative movie critic reviews - definitely had an impact.
