Waltz with Bashir


I saw this movie this weekend, its a documentary of the filmmaker trying to put pieces together of the war when he served in the Israeli army. The 1982 Lebanese war of Palestinian civilians massacred in West Beirut. This is all done in hand drawn animation. This was also done in Marjane Satrapi's Persepolis which I truely loved. Waltz with Bashir is a very sad story and the ending leaves you stunned. This is a foreign film so there are subtitles. It has already won a bunch of awards, if you like documentaries & artsy movies, I highly recommend it.
