Saw Rosewater.

Lucked into the movie last night and saw the interviews after the movie. Really grateful. If the movie is in general release in your area today, do try to see it. It was shot in Jordan so no hollywood theatrics. It is a compelling story and the actor in the lead is excellent.

I heard it was directed by some hack, first-time director.
How good could it be?
