Hotel Rwanda

Directed by Terry George
2004
★ 4.9 editorial score

Don Cheadle plays a hotel manager who used bribes and telephone calls to shelter over a thousand people: the 1994 Rwandan genocide, seen mostly through the absence of anyone coming to help.

“"Hotel Rwanda" is a political thriller based on fact that hammers every button on the emotional console. At the very least, this wrenching film performs the valuable service of lending a human face to an upheaval so savage it seemed beyond the realm of imagination when news of it filtered into the West.”
