Really Great Movie

Okay, now I'm not usually one to praise a Leonardo DiCaprio film or jump on the Hollywood Cause bandwagon, but I honestly thought Blood Diamond was an amazing film. His Rhodesian (okay, Zimbabwean) accent was actually very good. And for once, a good movie was made about a serious subject. Granted, I do think they spent way too much money making the film (money that could have gone elsewhere), but perhaps it will open some people's eyes to the world of conflict diamonds, child soldiers, how rebels are indirectly funded through the actions of people here in the good ol' USofA, etc. And even though the Kimberley Process has dramatically reduced conflict diamonds from entering the global market, it still exists to some extent. Make sure your precious diamond is not only conflict free but child labour free and from an ethical distributor.
