Waiting for the Barbarians (2019)
A great movie, great storyline, but not for everyone
I'm a movie goer, I like very much watching great movies, the ones that touch our hearts with their great storyline, and every now and then one comes a long that leaves me think about what I've just watched and reflect its story on my personal life and the world we live in and what's going in it.
I don't think it was about any specific events in the human history, but it captures very well the cruelty of human beings against each other, but at the same time in the midst of this savagery, there is still someone who still have a very good heart, still human, still have the courage to stand up against those savages, even when his own life is put at risk.
I believe it shows extremely well how those who speak the truth and warns us of our evil deeds and the unfairness we do daily how they are being badly treated, mocked and ridiculed in our organizations and our societies. This movie is really great.

Exaggerated publicity
I really can't understand how this film won any award for best picture. 2019 provided many films that are far better than this one. Technically it is very good, but the story is extremely poor. If the intentions of its makers is to show how bad war is for people, this is a very worn out goal that was much better delivered by many war films before, especially "saving private Ryan".
In my opinion, it does not deserve at all to be nominated for a best picture category in any kind of awards, but we certainly live in a very biased and unfair world, where real talents still didn't get the recognition they deserve.
The Joker is a much much much better film.
