Hotel Rwanda portrays the saddening story of Hutus and Tutsis. Paul, the main character in Hotel Rwanda, is a Hutu but still wishes to help Tutsis through their dreadful time in genocide. During this film, Paul is given many opportunities to safety from all this violence and Tutsi refuges. He is offered choices others woud take with no other thoughts. Paul turns them down, and fights for the rights of his family, and all the other Tutsi’s which run to him for help. He has a very interesting character. He doesn’t seem to care about himself, but rather as the people in need and help instead, as in the movies case, the Tutsi’s. Paul understands by helping Tutsis he is putting himself in jeopardy and extreme danger. However, this does not concern him at all, because all he wants is to get all the Tutsis to safety from the genocide. Paul believes that this whole genocide is really all because of nothing, and that you couldn’t tell the difference between a Hutu and Tutsi, unless you look at their identification card which in bold letters would say of which they are. Hotel Rwanda depicts a time in history of genocide of Tutsis. This movie might look to the viewer as another Hollywood movie, but do not be fooled! Hotel Rwanda is a true story, about true people, about the past, history, and the violence, thousands of deaths, and families being tortured and ripped apart. This movie was a great watch causing run-on tears and choices people made, that affected their lives forever! Hotel Rwanda at least should be rated a nine out of ten. A great suggested movie, to a viewer in need of knowledge of the past, and the want to learn about what being sad really means.
