      Tsotsi is an excellent film, from start to finish. This is the first film in a very long time to elicit a number of emotional responses in me. Anger, joy, hope, forgiveness and empathy, are just a few. The storyline, plot, acting, music, cinematography were all top notch. The characters were all very believable- even the comedic relief. I was especially impressed with the manner in which the film was lit. There was something approaching beautiful of the slums, and the shots-in particular, the long views- were- breathtaking, a sort of elegant ugliness. This movie is brutal but believable, worth watching and well recommended.

                  "Based on a play by Athol Fugard, Tsotsi is South Africa's entry in this year's Oscar race for Best Foreign-Language Film. This remarkable movie means to shake you, and boy does it ever. In Johannesburg's Soweto townships, Tsotsi (slang for "thug") is a gang leader played with brutal force and unexpected tenderness by Presley Chweneyagae. After carjacking a Mercedes and shooting the woman who owns it, Tsotsi discovers the woman's baby in the backseat. His decision to care for the infant with help from a young mother (Terry Pheto) he threatens at gunpoint could have driven the film into crass sentimentality. Instead, writer-director Gavin Hood turns the film into a wrenching portrait of a character and a country at a crossroads. Chweneyagae's haunted and face is a window into a soul."
