Hotel Rwanda
2005
Amid the holocaust of internecine tribal fighting in Rwanda that sees the savage butchering of hundreds of thousands of men, women and children, one ordinary hotel manager (Oscar nominee Don Cheadle) musters the courage to save more than 1,000 helpless refugees. Sophie Okonedo, Nick Nolte and Joaquin Phoenix co-star in this powerful film -- often described as an African Schindler's List -- directed by Terry George.

Drama
This movie is in my top ten best of all time. The story of an everyman real-life hero in the midst of the immense evil of the Rwandan conflict--beautifully played by Don Cheadle.
