    A review by Reno

    Written by Reno on Mon Jun 08 2015
    **The world can't change by itself, we must bring it.** After watching this film I just remembered the quote from 'Sullivan's Travels' which says 'film's the greatest educational medium the world has ever known'. Indeed, cinema's for entertainment as well acts as a message deliverer. This was an inspirational movie, and everybody must see it. I know I'm a bit late to see it, better late than never, right? I'm really glad for having it at the right time because 15 years ago I did not have this blog to write about it. OK, the name of the movie represents the theme of the story. No matter it...
