Bamako
Bamako is a limited-realease movie set in Mali, so most of us may have to wait for it to come out on DVD. Kevin Thomas of the LA Times gives the movie a Critics' Choice rating (See all Critics' Choice movies on this blog). Thomas writes:"Bamako" is an attack on globalization that is endlessly cogent, confrontational — and, best of all, as captivating as it is illuminating...Bamako is one of the most powerful, compelling African films ever.
