I recommend it as well. Not quite as funny as Roger and Me, IMO, but certainly a subject that is long overdue in mainstream film. My only problem is that I had already seen about five clips on various previews, TV shows, and article references, but that's not the film's fault, I guess. A few parts are sappy, but others are affecting. As with any MM film, it tends to be one-sided, but in this case I can't say to be terribly bothered by that.
Maybe seeing this will actually prompt Americans to action on this shameful business, but I am pessimistic.
Cool soundtrack, too.
The reference to the website about Canadians in the closing credits is worth sticking around for, BTW. (I won't spoil it for you.)
Has anybody else seen this movie yet?

It's not out in Italy yet, I'm looking forward to see it.
