Tsotsi

This movie was one we picked up based on the award it got - we'd never heard of it. It was great, definitely worth seeing. Luckily for us, the blurb on the back of the DVD gave less away than the description above - it was nice to have the 'surprise' of what Tsotsi found in the car he stole. This was a really interesting look at the life of a young man, and, more broadly, at the dichotomy between rich and poor in Johannesburg. Definitely worth seeing. There are some funny and tragic moments. The ending was well done - by that point we were expecting the worst to happen to the characters.
