When the Khmer Rouge captured Phnom Penh in 1975, many thought the killing would end. Instead it started a long nightmare in which three million Cambodians would die in the "killing fields."

The Killing Fields is an epic story of friendship and survival produced by David Puttnam (Chariots of Fire) and directed by Roland Joffe (The Mission). Sam Waterston plays Sydney Schanberg, whose war coverage entraps him and other journalists. Dr. Haing S. Ngor is Dith Pran, Schanberg`s aide and friend who saves them from execution. But Pran is sentenced to labor camps, enduring starvation and torture before escaping to Thailand. Ngor also endured Khmer Rouge atrocities and saw his moving, Academy Award®-winning portrayal of Pran (one of the film`s three Oscars®) as a way of bringing his nation`s tragic ordeal to light.

Ein sehr realistischer Film, zeigt alle
Facetten des Kambodscha- Krieges.
Sehr spannend und brutal inszeniert.
Puissant et terrible

Scritta il 09. ottobre 2007 da The Scott.

Un grand must du cinéma des années 80. Une histoire terrible dans un cambodge à feu et à sang, mais aussi une amitié puissante entre un reporter et son interprète. Une performence haute en couleur des acteurs et une tension extrême font que ce film doit trouver sa place dans toutes les bonnes vidéothèque.
