positive · AI labelView post →Hotel Rwanda is an excellent movie but I can't imagine going through it again. Same with Zone of Interest.

neutral · AI labelView post →I’ve mentioned this before, but we chose to go to Hotel Rwanda on a first (and only) date. The movie was too much to process, so we both just warn him after and never talked again. She was a friend of a friend and, I assume, lovely.
neutral · AI labelView post →Hotel Rwanda was a good movie
positive · AI labelView post →TCM Pick of the Day: Hotel Rwanda (2004). With a stellar cast that includes Don Cheadle, Nick Nolte, and Sophie Okonedo, this film was based on the real-life story of a hotel manager who saved more than 1,000 citizens during the Rwandan genocide. It impacted me more than any film I can remember.
positive · AI labelView post →Not really a breakup story, but for a first date, we decided to see a movie and went with one that we were both interested in. We chose to see a Hotel Rwanda on a first date, and then never spoke again.
neutral · AI labelView post →One of the student workers stopped by to say he's watched 4 movies in the past 20 hours. One of them was Hotel Rwanda. He stopped by the circ desk to ask, what was the movie I mentioned last night that came out the same year as Brokeback Mountain? So now he's going to watch The Constant Gardener.
neutral · AI labelView post →Drop a film you watched on a first date. (Unsurprisingly, they're are no Hotel Rwanda gifs to choose from)
neutral · AI labelView post →I handwrote a 5 page essay, in class, as part of my final on the movie Hotel Rwanda. I have never seen Hotel Rwanda. I got an A
neutral · AI labelView post →I read once that in the DVD era Hotel Rwanda was Netflix’s most profitable movie because it would come up on people’s queues when they weren’t paying attention and then sit unwatched until they either sent it back. Anyway, I’ve been interested in the war and I’m probably going to watch it.

BTW, I viewed my favourite thus far, Taiwan White Terror-era "A Foggy Tale", from a circle seat at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre's Grand Theatre. Like I previously memorably did for "Hotel Rwanda" and "Bubble Fiction: Boom or Bust".
neutral · AI labelView post →Russ Vought’s Mar-a-Lago Sex Odyssey With First Wingman Trump will someday be a movie as touching and life-affirming as American Pie and as erotic as Hotel Rwanda
neutral · AI labelView post →I had a first date with someone to see a romcom, and, when we got to the theater, she said she wasn't in the mood for that and she really wanted to see HOTEL RWANDA. That was NOT a good date movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →See the film Hotel Rwanda to learn how we actually have a terrifying amount of power right now if we chose to use it. No one sees the power because it hasn’t been fully used yet. It’s there. We have it. ♥️🤍💙
neutral · AI labelView post →"Hotel Rwanda", because she was a Don Cheadle fan. Good movie, important movie, but man does it take the mood out back and shoot it in the head.
positive · AI labelView post →Most awkward movie you've seen on a first date? I'll start. Shakespeare in Love. Not as bad as Hotel Rwanda.

neutral · AI labelView post →I try to avoid that kinda stuff by connecting things to movies or games I like but like That feels disrespectful with Israel for so many reasons The closest a movie comes to really capturing the pit of humanity I see here is maybe Hotel Rwanda or The Act of Killing
neutral · AI labelView post →OT, but have you ever seen Hotel Rwanda? Besides Cheadle's spell binding performance it's also a movie that very much does NOT make Western Whites the Saviors of anyone. And the scene with Cheadle and Nolte is just devastating.
positive · AI labelView post →I have a movie idea it's like Hotel Rwanda meets ten things I hate about you.
neutral · AI labelView post →i think of it as: If every movie I watched for 2 years was Schindler's List & Hotel Rwanda - I'd stop watching movies Those might be important, but I also need "dumb" movies like Avengers or Star Wars in my life to appreciate them, too
positive · AI labelView post →I keep thinking about the movie "Hotel Rwanda."

neutral · AI labelView post →I rewatched the movie, Hotel Rwanda, today. It shows how one group of people was brainwashed by the media of the time, into a rage that murdered a million people.
neutral · AI labelView post →Watching...Hotel Rwanda is a very good movie.
positive · AI labelView post →My most formative political film experience was watching Hotel Rwanda in high school. Contemporary Issues class in an alternative highschool where our textbook was current newspapers. Teacher was an ex-juvenile defender lawyer who spent several years following the Grateful Dead to every show.
neutral · AI labelView post →Donald Trump is going to get in bed with Paul Kagame, the Rwandan dictator who kidnapped Paul Rusesabagina, the hero portrayed in the movie Hotel Rwanda. Kagame has promised to accept undocumented immigrants deported by the Trump administration. You know what he'll use them for.
neutral · AI labelView post →They taught us nothing in school!! Actually they just hid our history and white-washed it! Extremely powerful film. From genocide of the Native Americans, the persecution of the Jews and The Hotel Rwanda...put it all together. Need someone with a platform to share.
positive · AI labelView post →Take the wrong lesson from a movie: Hotel Rwanda To escape a genocide, be white.
neutral · AI labelView post →Hotel Rwanda My sister and I watched it, and we didn't speak a single word as the credits rolled by. Amazing and intriguing movie; I don't want to see it again
positive · AI labelView post →The only one that comes to mind; where it was a good film but I would not choose to watch it a second time, is Hotel Rwanda. ( I saw that with a church youth group, and I'm starting to think some of them did need to watch it a second time.)
positive · AI labelView post →There’s a line Nick Nolte’s character says in the movie Hotel Rwanda. I’m not going to repeat it, but it wrecked me when I saw the movie in the theater and it still haunts me today.
neutral · AI labelView post →But what would you choose if you had to choose an EXCELLENT, top-notch film? One that was simply too emotionally difficult in its subject matter or plot to revisit a second time? The OP wasn't asking about bad movies, imo, but the great ones. Eg, Hotel Rwanda, Schindler's List, Shawshank, etc.

neutral · AI labelView post →This tactic is was used by the vilain's in the movie about genocide called 'Hotel Rwanda'.
neutral · AI labelView post →‘Hotel Rwanda’ was an extremely good movie. I highly recommend it.
positive · AI labelView post →The very first thing that came to my mind as probably the most impactful movie I’ve ever seen is Hotel Rwanda. Then on the complete opposite side of the spectrum, but still extremely impactful and important to me, I would say Everything Everywhere All At Once.
positive · AI labelView post →Hotel Rwanda (great movie, not for a date, also I was the third wheel)
positive · AI labelView post →Given my knowledge of all the terrible shit humanity has done for power, we’re in a bad place but no where near being buried alive. Only if we can fight back though. I highly recommend the film Hotel Rwanda. Only reason Rwandans were saved was bc of Rwandans.
positive · AI labelView post →Wait ... WTF ... so the admin wants to send asylum seekers from below the border to Rwanda ??? Umm ... the place that had the 1994 genocide between the Hutu and Tutsi ... WHAT ??? so they're looking for the movie sequel ... Hotel Rwanda 2: Hot N' Spicy !!! ... WTF www.youtube.com/watch?v=2x8U...
neutral · AI labelView post →I didn't cry as much again as much as a result of viewing a film until I watched Hotel Rwanda at the Hong Kong International Film Festival some years later. I cried so much then that I was emotionally numb and couldn't really have an emotional reaction to the next film I viewed at the fest...
positive · AI labelView post →Good to have this as a reminder to think about heroes. The living person whom I admire most is Paul Rusesabagina, whose sheltering of more than 1200 people during the Rwandan genocide of 1994 (dramatized in the movie Hotel Rwanda) I see as a model for doing the right thing while surrounded by evil.
neutral · AI labelView post →I once took a first date to see Hotel Rwanda, also not the right film for date one.
neutral · AI labelView post →I recall the director of Hotel Rwanda saying he chose not to make the film too graphic. As he did not want people to turn away from it. And Zone of Interest, I found it chilling that they did not show things. And the normalcy of life next to the camp, very disturbing.
neutral · AI labelView post →this is not as triggering as Hotel Rwanda. Hotel Rwanda was the start of the genocide. This film has to do with a British woman wanting to know her African roots after finding out she’s a survivor who was basically smuggled out of Rwanda by a YT woman (adoptive mother) as an infant.
neutral · AI labelView post →Dunkirk, Das Boot, Letters from Iwo Jima, Indigenes, Thirteen Days, Platoon or Das Boot, Hotel Rwanda and The Hurt Locker. 20th century war narratives in film.
neutral · AI labelView post →Seven Pounds with Will Smith (one of the all time worst movies, imo) Hotel Rwanda (actually good) Crash (yes, the racist one) Nitro (aka Quebec Fast and Furious) C.R.A.Z.Y. (another good flick) Iron Man Inch'Allah (very trash Quebecois film that tries to "both sides" the genocide of Palestinians)
positive · AI labelView post →Rewatched Hotel Rwanda (2004). What an utterly gutting film. An incredibly grim reminder of how quickly and violently things can turn when hate is being preached on all the media around you and viscous people are handed guns and told they can cleanse society with them. Kept thinking about ICE.
positive · AI labelView post →Gorillas in the Mist, Schindler's List, Elephant Man, Hotel Rwanda. Like Kids, they all left me hating people after I saw them, even if the movie itself was good.
positive · AI labelView post →Watch Nick Nolte's rant scene in in the bar, in the movie, Hotel Rwanda. That's why. Sad.
neutral · AI labelView post →also just watched Hotel Rwanda, then went wikireading, as one does. beautiful deeply horrifying film. apparently Paul Rusesabagina lives in the same city as me.
