It's always risky to pin a movie on the performances of children, but as I watched First They Killed My Father I kept thinking it was a good choice. I came into the story of a family torn apart in the Cambodian Civil War woefully ignorant to who the sides were or what was going on. Pinning our point of view to a child also oblivious put the focus on the human element. I don't know if the performances were good or the language factor hid it, but I had no qualms. I felt what they were feeling. I also kept thinking that humans suck, so it's definitely not a feel good tale. I found it interesting and a worth while watch.
