    The link to Mike Collin’s X account with his posts on Trump and the out of context Blood Diamond movie meme are shocking enough, but his lunatic replies are just outright eliminationist. Not everyone in this country is so murderous, but it will be enough to destroy us if we let it.

    Yay. I met a girl in undergrad who was a refugee from Congo. She explained how France and other countries created a crisis in Africa due to the demand of real diamonds. Mining it has contributed to violence, child labor and child soldiers. Watch Blood Diamond the movie its a very real story.

    The movie "Blood Diamond" has a climactic scene where, after spending most of the movie fighting with machine guns and machetes, suddenly a modern army shows up with air power. It's a wild inversion of the film's prior power dynamics, and is treated as much as a force of nature as a anything.

    “Sometimes I wonder … will God ever forgive us for what we've done to each other. Then I look around and I realize God left this place a long time ago.” Leonardo DiCaprio, as Danny Archer, in the 2006 Edward Zwick directed film “Blood Diamond.”

    First watch. Oddly haven't caught up on this one but after watching it I understand why it is easily forgotten as Caprio leaps and bounds from Blood Diamond to Inception in those years. Not bad just not good enough as a whole. Has some good parts. Mark Strong is top game as always.

    I know way more about the financial, cultural, & social realities that are behind the making of a movie like Blood Diamond, and I realized it’s not “sexy reporter” who is the problem. She literally is whining she can’t “stop” the war without his influence on the conflict. Reporters think this way!

    🎬 Blood Diamond (2006) How DiCaprio didn’t win the Oscar for his role as Danny Archer is something I will never understand. Easily one of the best films of 2000’s. The movie organically captures the violence and destruction of Sierra Leone during the civil war of 1991 - 2002.

That idyll is sharply destroyed, though, when his Sierra Leone village is beset by rebels who capture him and force him to work in their diamond mines. Not long into his travails, he discovers a very valuable blood stone which his brute of a commander sees him hide. Before he can act upon his suspicions, the…

    Rewatching Blood Diamond reminded me why it’s such a powerful and unforgettable film. It’s not just a movie—it’s an experience that grabs you by the heart and doesn’t let go. Leonardo DiCaprio delivers one of his best performances as Danny Archer. His character’s journey from selfish opportunist to someone who finds his humanity is so raw and real that it hit me on a deeper level this time around. Djimon Hounsou as Solomon Vandy was equally breathtaking; his portrayal of a father’s unshakable…
