Some New Trailer For The Betrayal - Nerakhoon
New Review For Movie The Betrayal - Nerakhoon
Self-consciously poetic and shot within a luscious inch of its life, the film's also an engrossing heartbreaker: a family saga that spans continents, political administrations, and decades of travail to arrive at a harder, wiser place.Ty Burr-Boston Globe
The Betrayal (Nerakhoon) is a remarkable achievement, haunting the viewer long after it ends.
Moira MacDonald-Seattle Times
The touching music (which includes quasi-choral chants) completes a film that, despite its tough subject matter, is life-affirming in the best possible way.
Jonathan Curiel-San Francisco Chronicle
[Betrayal's] saga, told with soul-stirring specificity, is also in a sense the history of 20th century bloodshed and dislocation, hauntingly anticipated in 5,000-year-old Lao prophecies.
Sheri Linden-Los Angeles Times
The filmmakers have created a shimmering, absorbing experience that's both specific and general, both concrete and abstract.
Andrew O'Hehir-Salon.com
The Betrayal is a potent mix of archival footage, talking heads and visually arresting montages.
V.A. Musetto-New York Post
The film's searing emotionalism is enhanced by lovely camerawork and a magnificent violin score.
Stan Hall-Oregonian
The Betrayal puts a human face and name on the term collateral damage and expands its definition in the process.
Duane Dudek-Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
...meditative images from renowned cinematographer Kuras skillfully mixed with archival footage, stills and talking heads by editor Thavi into a story with so many shocks and ironies that it resonates in waves after the telling.
Laura Clifford-Reeling Reviews
Succeeds on every level. Kuras cares not only about the story itself, which is monumental, but about the form it takes, which is a thing of beauty.
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)-St. Paul Pioneer Press
A doc that wears its viewpoint on its sleeve -- but a viewpoint worth watching
Amy Nicholson-I.E. Weekly
Although slow in its delivery, "Betrayal" delivers a stinging criticism of life in America. When foreigners come here for freedom, they may get more freedom than they wanted.
Ron Wilkinson-Monsters and Critics
"Somewhere within the countless hours of footage shot for the project is a truly stunning movie that sheds light on America's imperialism. Sadly, it's not there on the screen."
Sean Gandert-Paste Magazine
A lyrical prance through a most dreary period in time.
Matthew Nestel-Boxoffice Magazine
The filmmakers, plying the easier path of sentimentality, never explore the psychological complexity of the disenfranchisement suffered by the Phrasavaths. Instead, they emphasize the everyday humiliations of poverty%u2014the better to place blame.
Maria Garcia-Film Journal International
Epic story of one man and his war-torn family, across continents, decades, and cultures, with the director remarkably along through 24 tumultuous years.
Nora Lee Mandel-Film-Forward.com
A compelling documentary about a son and his mother struggling to keep their souls alive after surviving war in Laos and poverty in America.
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat-Spirituality and Practice
Parts look as though taken by actors, until one realizes that these are the same real people over years, heavier or thinner, baby-faced or mature.
