Romero

After Christian Falzon's mentioning of Archbishop Oscar Romero in class, today, some of you asked me to put the film 'Romero' on our blog.  Here it is.  This is the full movie.

As I told you in class, this is a powerful movie. Its main themes are the fighting for justice and love.  I think it's better to view this film with your parents or with a grown up so that s/he will be able to better explain what is happening.

Watching this film should help you to better understand what is like to live in a country run by a dictator and the sacrifice a large number of people are going through.  However it should also show you how there are still people working hard for a better world.  One of these people was Oscar Romero and a number of priests El Salvador, a small state in Central America.
