Situation in Afghanistan reminds you of...?
There are movies about the general type of situation that is going on in Afghanistan right now. I can think of a few. Anyone have any more? Here are the ones that I have thought of so far.
Argo (2012) Iran goes crazy, people need to be rescued.
No Escape (2015) A fictional, unnamed country in southeast Asia goes crazy, people need to escape or be rescued.
The Year of Living Dangerously (1982) Indonesia goes crazy, people need to escape.
The Killing Fields (1984) Cambodia goes crazy, people need to escape.
Hotel Rwanda (2004) Rwanda goes crazy, people need to escape, be rescued, and/or be hidden.
Schindler's List (1993) Germany goes crazy, people need to escape, be rescued, and/or be hidden.
Charlie Wilson's War (2007), of course. Afghanistan goes crazy (most relevantly for us now, the scenes right toward the end)... they don't deal too much with people needing to escape, in the movie.
Missing (1982), sort of. Chile goes crazy, and some people don't make it out.
The Serpent and the Rainbow (1988), sort of. Haiti goes crazy, off and on, throughout the movie. The political upheaval stuff is kind of in the background, in some ways... most of us just remember the really creepy parts. There are scenes about the political stuff though.
I'm pretty sure everyone here can follow the pattern I am looking for here, ha ha. Anyone got any other good ones to mention?
