Already we have an early candidate for memorable lines from the annals 21st century film, according to a review in the SF Bay Guardian, the Nick Nolte character, by way of explaining to a local African dude why there is no Western (US) intervention to stop the carnage says: "You're not even a n-word, you're an African". While these lines are powerfully poignant, they help mask the fact that there was heavy direct involvement in the events that unfolded in Rwanda and later in the Congo from neighboring states, especially Uganda, as well as Western countries particularly France and the United States.
