The Butler (I) (2013)
10/10
revealing what was swept under the carpet
23 June 2014
I appreciate the movies which show aspects of the life style of societies which have been swept under the carpet by the spokesmen of these societies, in an attempt to hide the ugly aspects of their life style. I appreciate because it's a way of paying the due tribute to the building values of civilization and humanism. This is why I appreciate The Butler. Yet, many stories of this kind will have to be told to pay the above mentioned tribute. For example, what have done in Africa those nations who had colonies there (Belgium for instance, in Congo, France in Ruanda etc). The cast of the film is excellent. Particularly Forest Witaker who gave a show of talent representing the character in all the stages of his life; he deserves many applause.
