I watched Paradise Now and really enjoyed the movie. I felt that it was a good representation of the Palestinian suicide bomber side of things; however it did not represent the other side of the argument. It was simply about suicide bombers, but what about the other fights against the occupation. Why not show a movie about the fight that people can really respect and agree with. I know many people do not understand why suicide bombers act the way they do and this was a slight insight into their life and way of thinking. However much I understand it I still do not agree with it. So I want to see a movie that is anti-occupation but in a more neutral way. Such a movie is Life in Occupied Palestine it gives an in depth look at the occupation from an outside perspective. Yet it focuses on a nonviolent movement in the Holy Land.
